    What paltry amount are we discussing? The concept of UBI is that it pays a living wage, enough to feed, clothe and house someone. It might not eradicate wealth inequality but it de…

    I think the GP is referring to the use of interfaces with only one implementing class, rather than interfaces with no implementing class. i.e. you end up creating a UserProvider an…
