PODCAST: Vox, “We know how to eliminate poverty. So why don’t we?”
News media website Vox recently began a weekly podcast named The Weeds that dives into deep public policy discussions surrounding politics today. In their episode released today, Matt Yglesias and Sarah Kliff, two regulars on the show, welcomed guest host Dylan Matthews, a Vox contributor who has written extensively on basic income previously.
Matt, Sarah, and Dylan discuss basic income for the first half hour of the podcast, highlighting its ideological diversity, its impact on work, and whether it can possibly answer issues with technological automation in the future. Further, at the beginning of the episode they give BasicIncome.org a shoutout for covering Dylan’s work.
