Minorities don’t just get social security. People don’t get social security if they don’t work or don’t have a spouse who worked. They pay in to the system via payroll taxes. With UBI who is going to pay into that? UBI just seems like a pipe dream.

With UBI, everyone is going to pay into that via taxes. It's not any different from other forms of welfare.
