It’s still bogus. How are the homeless going to buy illicit items (drugs, sex, etc.) with a debit card? So, a lot of these illicit transactions fly under the radar.

They get around this by buying food/clothing hard items and then selling them on the street for whatever they can get. That usually gives them enough to get their dope fix.

Yup. But this doesn’t occur to the study-takers trying to prove that a universal income is a good thing.
