“Low-income workers are more likely to stay employed if they receive an unanticipated cash transfer, rather than leave the labor market, as most people worry they will,” said Dionne Pohler, the David and Alexandra Lipsky Professor in Dispute Resolution and Labor Relations at #CornellILR.

UBI works.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Possibly the BIGist UBI news of my lifetime so far: "The Marshall Islands Just Quietly Implemented the First National Universal Basic Income (UBI)." Scott Santens, Nov 19, 2025

that UBI lifts people out of poverty and in most cases allows them to thrive has been proven and written about time over time. however if you keep electing politicians that think poor people should die we won't get anywhere with this.

Lots of newcomers to basic income learning the truth:

- 0 studies showed major drop in work
- saves taxpayers $ long-run (cheaper than poverty)
- most Canadians benefited from some sort of basic income (CCB, GIS)
- people in AI pretty much all support UBI
- it's not left or right (see Alaska's UBI)

Time is the most valuable resource we have. We sell it far too cheaply.

It’s time to change that.

A few years back, one of the coolest things I did was cheer on runners at Mile 19. People were surprised and kind of happy that a random stranger was rooting for them. Some were struggling and a little encouragement really helped. A few even said, “I needed this” as they ran by.
We have such capacity for love. I wish we knew that

If we lived in a moral society we would tax the wealthy at a rate such that a minimum basic income and a living minimum wage would obviate the need for programs like SNAP.

During his campaign, @andrew-yang.bsky.social frequently emphasized why stay-at-home parents should receive #UBI. Someone did the #Math and it turns out that even with UBI, we're still underpaying them.
