Sorry, I am not following you. It sounds like you agree with me, but still would prefer UBI, because it gives you money you can choose where to spend.

As a builder of houses, would it be easier/cheaper for me to build you a tiny house over a couple of weekends or pay $400 to you every month so that you could rent a room for the rest of your life?

As the person who needs a place to live, do you prefer the tiny house or the room that you rent? Does either provide better shelter?

The ability to say, "take this job and shove it" is the same as your ability to feed, cloth and house yourself for the near future. Whether it is UBI, or to have those things directly provided is pretty much irrelevant.

So, what reasons do you have that you prefer UBI over the basic needs?
