Universal Basic Income (UBI)

More about the book

The concept of Universal Basic Income, introduced by Thomas Paine in his 1817 work "Agrarian Justice," advocates for a system where all citizens receive a regular, unconditional sum of money from the government. This proposal aims to address economic inequalities and provide a safety net for individuals, reflecting Paine's vision of social justice and financial security. The book explores the implications of such a policy on society, the economy, and individual welfare, making a case for its relevance in contemporary discussions about poverty and wealth distribution.
