The Billionaire-Fueled Lobbying Group Behind the State Bills to Ban Basic Income Experiments

MAR 13, 202430 MIN

Description

<p>Much discussion has been had around basic income as a policy response to automation and as a result, over 150 pilot experiments have been launched in cities across the US to study it. Now in response to the successful results beginning to come out from those pilots, some states are beginning to ban the experiments from happening. One lobbying group in particular is behind these efforts to stop UBI, and its biggest funder is a billionaire most people have never even heard of.
