Wouldn't ubi not work in a deflationary environment. While inflation you could lie about eroding purchasing power easier?
Deflation would mean there wouldn't be any way for governments to fund the ubi...
No. The opposite. Receipts are based on purchasing power. And purchasing power RISES in technological deflationary environment. Today it costs more and more to buy things. When prices fall to marginal cost of production and your money is not inflated, you are able to afford more.
