If its only going to jobless people, not UBI.

This is not a meaningless distinction -- one of the features of UBI is that it is universal. If this just goes to unemployed people we cannot see the change in behavior with people who are earning close to their reservation wage. Do they stop working?

This is streamlined rebranded welfare. Not a paradigm shift.
