Diane Whitmore Schanzenbach, "What would Milton Friedman think of shutdown debate?"

[Craig Axford]

The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and food stamp program, recently renamed the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), are programs that serve as tentative steps toward conservative economist Milton Friedman's vision of a negative income tax. In this article the author argues today's conservatives are increasingly turning their back on these programs, however, and the recent government shutdown reflects this change in attitude.

This document reports on a conference that was hosted by Studies in Poverty and Inequality Institute (SPII) and the Ecumenical Service on Southern Africa (KASA) in Johannesburg, South Africa. It was held on 25 and 26 April 2013 at the Economic Rights Programme. The conference was aimed to develop an innovative and comprehensive case for the introduction of a universal cash transfer in the form of a Basic   Income Grant for the entire Southern African Development Community   (SADC). The grant will be funded by a tax on extractive activities, such as mining and drilling.
