Minneapolis has gone full communist: Guaranteed Basic Income

And this is different from medicaid how OP?

"I'm mad they're doing this and aren't allocating our tax dollars to amazon, tesla and walmart."

They claim it's only a "pilot" at this point, but Comrade Frey will tout its 'success' (regardless of the outcome) and work to expand it.

These people are so predictable. They only push further and further and further.

Shill.
Reported and recommending a ban.

Who could live off 500 bucks a month?

Good. Because we are all going to be on it thanks to big techs AI and automation. Welcome to the future.

A bunch of ignorant morons on this thread. All studies conducted so far have shown a basic income is beneficial in nearly all ways.

But oh no! Someone that isn't white might get some money. Better to let nobody have it and call it communism (a term 90% of the posters here couldn't define). Fuck the poor and the immigrants right?

Minneapolis will soon support 200 families with its new guaranteed basic income pilot, an experiment in alleviating poverty by paying low-income households $500 per month for two years, no strings attached.

The city has set aside $3 million of American Rescue Plan Act funds for the program. Households must earn less than 50% of area median income to be eligible. The program echoes a similar experiment that St. Paul launched in 2020 and dozens of other cities nationwide, whose leaders have made testing grounds to inform federal welfare policies.

Minneapolis wanted to try guaranteed basic income because federal COVID money offered an opportunity for something radically different to address the city's intractable racial disparities, said Erik Hansen, the city's Director of Economic Policy and Development.

Humans need money.

If you're providing one 'need' you give them all.

You opened pandora's box with your bu0uumer B.S. like 'social security.

These are the natural consequences of your idiotic generation.

Live with it.

so what is 50% of a low income? i would love 500 more a month. pay 1/2 my rent. now i bet you have to live in MLPS and i am north of that town.
rent in MLPS is more like 1500 and up!
So i bet you have to be vaxxed to get that 500.
