jan 29 2018 Finland has tried it. Kenya has tried it. Now the city of Stockton, Calif. is going to try it. A few dozen families will get a check, $500 a month, no strings attached. The fact that this money does not come with any requirements makes it different from a traditional welfare program. Stockton is calling it a guaranteed basic income. The city expects to hand out the first checks later this year. Michael Tubbs is the mayor of Stockton. Welcome to the program.

SHAPIRO: How is this going to work exactly?

TUBBS: So from now until June, we'll do a community engagement process to come up with the selection criterion for the families who will be selected. Those families will receive $500 a month for the next year to 18 months with the idea to really elevate the story of working-class people everywhere. People are working very hard and struggling and unable to make basic ends meet. So we were able to get a grant of $1 million from the Economic Security Project to really test this idea.

SHAPIRO: So this is not going to cost taxpayers anything? It's being paid for by a grant.

TUBBS: It doesn't cost tax payers anything. It's paid from $1.2 million in philanthropic funding. So the idea is that in the next couple of years, we'll have some data that will tell us whether this is a solution that is viable or not.

While I agree with you JD on the OP, this is a typical California liberal program. Give out tax payers money with no strings attached.

The article says the money comes from a grant and is NOT taxpayer money. But even if that's true it won't last. Eventually this will be funded by taxpayers meaning whites.

If you're going to guarantee a minimum amount to someone who doesn't have the skills/abilities to earn it, how is that not welfare?

Yet nothing from him explaining how giving someone more than the skills they have are worth isn't welfare.

Right, because I'm sure only blacks will take advantage of this. Do you ever look beyond race?

Liberals say black failure is NOT because they lack ability. It's caused by the GIANT WHITE CONSPIRACY holding down blacks!! HAHAHA

No one said that but it's sure blacks will use this program at 10 times the rate of whites. That's how it is in our present welfare system. THINK

As long as a single, able-bodied white person is on welfare, you don't have an argument.

Experiment??? You mean you believe that??? Once they get this new form of welfare started it's gonna grow and grow and grow. More freebies for non-whites and whites will pay for it. Why can't you blacks ever take care of yourselves??
