Today we are going to look at an interesting and often controversial idea: Universal Basic Income, or UBI for short.
Let me ask you a question: What if the government gave everyone free money, no strings attached?
No matter who you are, where you work, or how much you earn; just regular payments, every month, guaranteed.
Does this sound too good to be true? Or maybe it sounds like a smart solution to poverty, inequality, and the future of work?
In this episode, we’ll explore the concept of Universal Basic Income, discuss its goals and purpose, look at real-life experiments and trials from around the world, and examine the debate: Is UBI a brilliant idea… or a dangerous one?
