In all fairness, another weakness of UBI studies, regardless of if they
end up in the pro or contra camp, is that by definition they do not test
UBI, but only a limited amount of people for a limited time. That is a
weakness in both pro and contra studies.

I believe those involved were working minimum wage jobs with employers
who cut off their work hours at 30 weekly hours.

Do the employment math...attrition rate is high for low paying
'part-time' jobs, and the rate is low for decent paying full-time
jobs.

===================================

The Institute for Women's Policy Research reports that females are
nine times likelier than males to work in a part-time capacity over a
full-time capacity as a result of caregiving demands of their family
members.[15][16]

Increasing use of part-time workers in the United States is associated
with employee scheduling software often resulting in expansion of the
part-time workforce, reduction of the full-time workforce and
scheduling which is unpredictable and inconvenient.[17][18][19]
