Those seem incompatible to me.

(UBI means Universal Basic Income, giving everyone a basic income, for free)

    From your example, what I’m saying is nobody should be cleaning a sewer for minimum wage. If you need your sewer fixed you can either do it yourself or pay someone enough that they’d be willing to do it.

    If you can’t pay someone enough, obviously fixing that sewer wasn’t important enough to you.

    I’m not saying everyone should get the same wage. There’s a huge difference between flipping burgers and working in a mine, and the pay should reflect that.
