Wouldnt it be easier to just give everybody $1000/mo but then use the yearly tax bill to get high earners to pay it back rather than having graduated payouts?
That ensures that everybody gets prompt payouts and feels that there’s a safety net, but no complex means testing and bureaucracy. And the same net cost, although the timing of the payouts will shift a bit
