Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Inflation could be triggered because of the increase in demand for goods and services

There won't be an increased standard of living in the long run because of inflated prices

A reduced program with smaller payments won't make a real difference to poverty-stricken families

Free income may not incentivize people to get jobs, and could make work seem optional

Free income could perpetuate the falling labor force participation rate

Many opposed to giving money to the unemployed
