I support UBI because I am a fiscal conservative.
There is, no joke, a surprising amount of libertarian support.
The two most prominent libertarian supporters of a UBI are Matt Zwolinski, a libertarian philosophy professor at the University of San Diego, and the economist Michael Munger.
(I think it's important to clarify that I'm left-libertarian, not an 'edgy fascist' an-cap like those who've co-opted the label in the US.)
Just to let you know a left-libertarian is called an Anarchist.
There are a whole bunch of different ideologies in that quadrant of the political compass (for lack of a better visual aid), and anarchism is only one of them.
