@publius I think you're kind of missing the point of UBI. If you peg it to the Cost of Living and increase taxes on the wealthy every time the UBI payment has to go up, there's a strong class disincentive to keep the CoL from rising too fast, to prevent it from driving inflation (which hits those with largest savings the most). The whole point of making it universal is to prevent the punitive creep of means-tested welfare benefits. Everybody gets it, no matter what. Period.
