      Follow the thread, read the context.

      First guy was like “UBI should replace everything”. Then I said “Watch out, everything is not a good idea because e.g. health care costs vary wildly”. Second guy was like “Nobody is arguing for UBI without socialized healthcare”. To which I said “Well, some people do”. And then you came here and said “But second guy literally said he wants socialized healthcare”.

        Here, let me quote his last paragraph before the edit for you:

        I may not be the target audience though as I also totally want socialized healthcare, free education extending into the collegiate level, and a UBI replacing all welfare programs, because those fall under the “General Welfare” set out by the Constitution and those things would cost less than what we have now for far better outcomes.

        See that “I also totally want socialized healthcare” line?
