I got one word for you: /f/fuckdave

Been awhile but his argument is basically that UBI would lead to a reduction of government control because conservatives would use it as an excuse to phase out all the government welfare programs. With less welfare programs there is less government. Then, with people able to afford shit, many of the governments that are business would die out because people would refuse to work pointless jobs and have the capability to pursue their actual interests.

Even if I agreed with this premise he is somehow confusing no government with less government. Doesnt seem anarchist to me anyway.
