> What kind of idiot would work for free and pay taxes

If you work for free, your income is zero and you won't pay taxes. You'll still get UBI though.

Right so why would you do anything difficult like the hard labor required to maintain infrastructure?

Because you need/want more than $10k/year to live on?

The only thing that changes is that, with UBI, nobody is forced to work in degrading conditions so they can feed their children.

  It's absolutely not going to work if you can afford children without working. Literally zero people will do anything they don't absolutely feel like doing under that social regime.
  No country can run entirely on charity.
