There's a qualitative question in what the "free" tier entails. If it's basic survival, then that might be "affordable" with room to motivate. If the adequate food was "bachelor chow and water", ok. If the "home" is a basic bed with a lockable door in a walkin closet sized room, ok.
If we say everyone should get all you can eat buffet with quality apartments, then you start eroding the mechanism to motivate people to do work that needs to be done.
I'd like to distance myself from the individualistic, service-oriented notion that an allayou-can-eat-buffet entails.
Give people free homes and a community and they'll sooner or later create an all you can eat potluck.
