At least one in my opinion. None of these studies are designed to be capable of tracking "success" across a society.

There's this wide belief that the plebescite will emergently produce great cultural works if they're freed from labour.

We already have effective UBI for the non-working classes in many countries. I can assure you that the recipients produce little of worth.

What is this "effective UBI" that you're talking about? Pensions? That isn't UBI.
