Do you support a universal basic income program?

Yes, but the universal basic income should go toward those that work, or can not work due to medical issues or other issues that disqualifies a person from being able work. Those that voluntary do not work, but can work, should not be allowed to collect a basic income.

only for people in bottom 2 tax brackets and those who are actively trying for 6 months+ and can't get enough income

Yes, but only if they regularly prove they are actively working to provide for themselves(but it not being enough)

cheeseburgers should be paid to every unemployed man and also feed them orange juice and those cheeseburgers

No, the basic necessities must be covered without the need of an income to do so. The income should be for outside of basic needs stuff.

Poor people should receive an income to cover their basic necessities and a program should help them to find a job

No, I don’t think it’s not good ideas. If the government create universal income programs then that will make people lazy to work and relays on basic income. However, government can provide some types of assistance or stimulus programs when there are crises such as COVID-19 pandemic.

A program should be established that targets specific brackets relating to the families income, rather than every family/individual receiving a national constant income from the government

It's going to be needed in the future, more complex than a multi choice answer.

Yes, but all other forms of welfare should be removed to fund it by the means of less bureaucracy while at the same time allowing people who really need the money to spend their free time improving themselves, finding work or spending time with their families rather than filing paper work.

Yes, but universal basic income should come with some conditions, such as they have to look for a job. Also, people should always have more money when they work, as if they do not work.

No, it promotes laziness

depending on salary and work hours, certain benefits be received based on these variables.

Implementing long-term social services and welfare reform is more essential than UBI which is not sustainable, however exceptions for those negatively impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic can be made in order to cover basic necessities short-term

Yes, everyone should receive an income to cover basic necessities including food and housing but this exclude abled people who willfully refuse to perform any work

I believe rather than supplying money directly could be harmful to the health of the economy. Based on that assumption low/no income residents should receive the the goods/services directly to cut down on the chance of the system being compromised and taken advantage of. To further combat this the German Government could implement systems that seek to give these low/no income residents jobs to improve their current position.

How fair is it to fund a universal income with taxes, and would it affect your view on how hard you should work or how much you should earn?

With an income cutoff - Stop making the rich richer and the poor stuck.

Yes, but at the same time no, because people will stop working and affect the economy; and yes, because it will help a lot of people who really need some economic help.
