“Most importantly though, and in contrast to UBI, the plan for Universal Basic Services is based on a clearly socialist approach. Rather than subverting the logic of the welfare state, the plan for UBS upgrades the it to cover new areas. Where UBI gives citizens money to use within the market economy, UBS takes basic goods out of the market system all together – a far more transformative move.”
