Description

Universal Basic Income is an idea that's been discussed by everyone from Martin Luther King to Milton Friedman, and it's been a topic of increasing interest following Andrew Yang's 2020 Election campaign. In this episode I discuss the pros and cons, and whether UBI may hold the key to solving our poverty problem. / If you liked this episode, David also writes an intellectually stimulating newsletter full of dry humour and useful resources at: www.theknowledge.substack.com / Keep the conversation going on Twitter at @Legendofbaba using the hashtag #TheKnowledge
