summary

Basic income is framed as raising the floor from zero to about $1,000 a month, replacing targeted welfare and cutting downstream costs like health and crime (argued at over a trillion dollars yearly). Cited evidence includes an Alaska dividend around $2,100 per person, a Namibia pilot showing a 40% crime reduction, a 31% rise in entrepreneurship, and planned 10–15 year village UBI trials in Kenya to measure long‑term effects.
