If you replaced things like welfare with UBI you would see employment rise. People on welfare and disincentivized from working unless they can find a job that pays significantly more than welfare. But it generally doesn't work that way. With a ubi these individuals can get a part time job and keep all the money they make from it and eventually they may be asked to work additional hours etc.
