This video was filmed by Basic Income NYC (the Universal Basic Income movement in the Greater New York City Area) on Basic Income Week. It asks passers-by what they would do with $1000 a month every month for the rest of their lives, and it receives some interesting responses.
Basic Income NYC, “What would you do?” Basicincome.nyc, September 15, 2015.
I had a blog for about 8 years an one of my basic ideas was a liveable basic income. My blog was “Apathy Begone/ Activating Minds and Voices.” My blog was hacked and taken off the internet and I believe it was because of my advocacy for monetary reform and this idea of a liveable income for everyone over the age of 18.
I know that I’m not the first to advocate for this but I had a new wrinkle in my model which I called “The Fail-Safe Economy.” I had a two tier money creation aspect that would eliminate poverty and keep inflation at zero or at a minimum. No more bubbles, booms or busts!
If you’re interested on learning more, namely the logistics I would be more than happy to provide you with more details.
