Although I have a masters degree I worked for 10 years, 3 nights each week, as a volunteer psychotherapist, providing free therapy to those that could least afford psychotherapy, those that needed it most.
I obviously had a day job too. I loved working for free, the benefits are huge, less stress and autonomy in how you choose to spend your time and skills and a greater sense of achievement.
If I had CBI I would work for free.
I am all for social devotional work backed with CBI.
CBI and work for free if you want to.
I can definitetely understand the sense of feeling more mentally stable without the daily stresses that come with not enough money to live on.
Most people who earn a decent salary are generally against CBI because of their own values around their own working ethic. There is nothing written anywhere that says that work is beneficial to a human being.
The money for nothing crowd always raises its ugly head when talking about any support that benefits human development especially of the poor.
As a retired therapist the majority of my lower socio-economic clients problems where due in full to the finanacial situation they found themselves in.
All therapists carry a sense of helplessnes when dealing with such clients becaue we cannot help them.

I'm not against UBI, I just don't see how it can be done. It seems fundamentally impossible to finance at scale, which all of these experiments ignore. They are always experiments where a tiny number of people get money generated by a vast majority of people.
Which we have already, in the form of needs-based welfare.
People love meaning and purpose in their life and they typically find that in work as its a complex amalgamation of all sorts of challenges and rewards.
I believe UBI would be a net benefit for society it would enable the poorest to survive better and the rest of us more flexibility in how we life our lives.
