Andrew Dolan, "Do They Owe Us a Living? 7 Reasons the Universal Basic Income is Worth Fighting For"
PUBLISHER'S SUMMARY: "The Universal Basic
Income (UBI) --
sometimes called the Unconditional Basic Income, Citizens' Income
or Social
Wage -- has in recent times become a focus of economic discussion
across the
political spectrum. While column inches in the Financial Times and
The
Economist have been racking up, academics such as Stuart White
have been articulating
how valid cases for the UBI can be made from communist, liberal
and republican
perspectives. Here Andrew Dolan offers 7 reasons why the UBI
should matter to
people who want to move beyond capitalism."

SUMMARY: President Obama is proposing to
significantly
expand the Earned Income
Tax Credit
(EITC). This program arose
out of
conservative economist Milton Friedman's idea of a negative income
tax (a form
of BIG) and has traditionally enjoyed bipartisan support.
