    Reminder that the prompt said a town level not state or federal. There is no individual town that would be capable of sustaining Ubi it would have to be at minimum a state level thing to be successful

      Idunno, I feel like a sufficiently large city could do something along those lines with sufficient political will.

      Maybe not some little population 47, one stop sign “town” out beyond Bumfuckistan…but maybe a proto-UBI as a economy-boosting supplement could be worked out in a city of 100K+ residents.

      Towns find the money for stroads and highways, I don’t see why UBI would be difficult
