Conrad Shaw: The UBI Calculator

If we were to fund a basic income of $1,000 a month with a wealth tax, a carbon tax, some program consolidation and deficit spending, how much would your bank account increase or decrease after your income and current government assistance are factored in? A new project, the UBI Calculator (ubicalculator.com), seeks to answer this question down to the dollar for many of the UBI plans being proposed today. The project's creator, Conrad Shaw, joined the podcast to discuss the UBI Calculator and why he built it.
