The Progressive Case for Replacing the Welfare State with Universal Basic Income

from The Scott Santens UBI Enterprise Hosted by Scott Santens

Back in 2016, I pitched an article to TechCrunch about explaining the progressive case for replacing welfare programs with unconditional basic income. This is the article I wrote which continues to be widely shared by readers as one of their favorites of mine, especially now that Andrew Yang is running for president on a UBI design that offers people the choice of basic income or welfare.
