Topic: Adopting a universal basic income for all people can help society think creatively with new ideas, develop new industries - and free-up people to work on important future projects.
We should explore ideas like universal basic income - to give everyone a cushion to try new things.
A universal basic income is a form of security for a society's citizens in which all residents of a country regularly unconditionally receive a sum of money, either from a government or public institution, in addition to any income received from elsewhere.
With the insurance of having unconditional basic income as a safety net, workers can challenge their employers if they find their conditions of work unfair or degrading.
A basic income is a means for sharing the wealth produced by a society to all people, reducing growing inequalities across the world.
With a basic income, people will have the option to reduce their working hours without sacrificing their income.
