Affirmative action is an opportunity, the opportunity to go to a prestigious college.

It's not equality outcomes.

@EffectivelyHidden UBI just puts a floor on how far one can financially fall, it improves the minimum possible outcome. It does not provide equality of outcomes. Some UBI recipients will have higher incomes and more wealth than others.
