Oof. Those are pretty terrible results.

I'd still like to see Milton Friedman's idea of a negative income tax tested some day. It would not have any of the downsides - it's not universal so you don't give out money to people who are already well-employed, and it increases as you make more (to a certain point) so it incentivizes working.
