It seems like we have lots of easily accessible public data about the pandemic and relatively little about supply chain issues. The supply chain articles I’ve read have lots of anecdotes but little in the way of charts and graphs.

Maybe that’s part of the problem?

J.P. Morgan put out a really great and fairly detailed article on supply chains and just the general state of the world from a financier's perspective a couple of weeks ago.

wow what a read.

I had feeling, does this years' labor shortage prove that UBI is generally bad in a globalized world?

Prove? Ehhhh, probably not, but maybe. Provides support for the idea that a true UBI (meaning an actual living wage substitute) will not be generally beneficial to society until we have much higher levels of automation all up and down the production stack, but especially the service sector.

I don't think it really shows us anything about a flat subsidy to everyone though.

There is no labor shortage, that would imply we have too little (skilled) workers, but there has never been as many. If you think workers having some leverage is bad of course you'll be against UBI.
