Do it. Please do more of this. Sounds bad at first but think of how great this is. Lots of non-white families drop out of the work force thanks to free money. Businesses close, white families leave the area. Then you have a living testament to how dumb this idea was as Oakland returns to being a crime filled hell hole.
That's not how it works. All of those white families will still have their taxes increased to pay for it, in the long run. This study will show it "works" (because UBI does work at very small scales), which they'll use as "proof" that it can work at the state level.

Returns to being?
Haha I was being hopeful. I live in NC and have only visited Cali a few times.
