I imagine it would improve wages as employers would need to properly incentivise people to return to those jobs. Probably why UBI hasn't made it past a trial yet.

    Yes, but that's the textbook definition of inflation (being forced to raise wages because the salary becomes less valuable). I'm not sure if that's really the goal here.

    I can understand the case for UBI, but so far most trials have been quite small in scope... that means few national effects have been properly observed.
