RE: Universal basic income and true economic stimulus.
I've spend some time, though not enough, studying the literature. The economic & policy research into UBI is very complicated & sophisticated from what I can see.
Different anarcho-capitalist perspectives (& I subscribe to anarcho-capitalism) give pro- & anti- arguments regarding UBI.
At the moment I prefer to suspend judgment until there are good empirical studies. I've read Y Combinator has already funded some test cases of UBI implementation in various locations around the world.
See, that's part of my problem. If it's that complicated, and complex, then there' a lot of room to screw us over. Just look at the US Code and all the Laws that are written to tell us how to live -- it takes lawyers a lifetime to learn to manipulate. And it's never written in plain English. Always obfuscated. Never meant for you and I.
