Duncan Cameron, "A living minimum"
[Craig Axford]
SUMMARY: Citing a 2009 report by the Canadian
Centre for
Policy Alternatives (CPPA), this author argues that a basic income
guarantee
wouldn't necessarily involve a huge expenditure by government to
implement. Providing a
greater degree of
separation between work and income might, as Eric Fromm argued,
also greatly
enhance personal freedom.
