Michigan’s $55M experiment with guaranteed income begins with Flint moms to test whether cash payments can protect children from the toxic stress of poverty

Flint moms who enroll will receive up to $7,500 to help boost their infant’s footing in the first year of life — a one-time $1,500 payment in mid-pregnancy, followed by $500 per month for the first year of their child’s life.

Moira_Mayhem,

Every single large scale test of UBI has resulted in massive positive outcomes for the most needy and secondary and tertiary benefits to the community and local economy in general.

And every singe large scale test of UBI gets buried in the news cycle, propagandized as a threat to communities, and promptly forgotten about as the next shitshow that has become our daily lives erupts.

We are all owned, bought and sold. Cattle to push the engine of commerce so that 10 people can own half the world.
