This article first describes, in detail, 26 years of the conditional minimum income grant scheme in Comunidad Autónoma Vasca (Basque region in Spain). It concludes that such scheme is a failure and so must not be reproduced  through all Spanish territory. To radically change social policy would necessarily mean complete disconnection between work and income, and as such the implementation of a basic income guarantee.
