Honestly, replacing the programs with direct, less conditional payments seems good on the surface, especially since it decouples them from taxes (and therefore guarantees the people who need money will still be getting it if e.g they lose their job). I'm sure I'm missing something here, but I don't know what it is.

The real question is whether the Republicans will have any ability to kneecap and sabotage it like they did with the ACA, or if they'll just gut it once they have the power to.

Also yes funding this by not cutting safety nets would be ideal.
