  • For some, it meant the opportunity to land a job to help them get by.
  • In the period that Mincome was administered, hospital visits dropped 8.5 per cent. Fewer people went to the hospital with work-related injuries and there were fewer emergency room visits from car accidents and domestic abuse. There were also far fewer mental health visits.

    Article qui met le point sur l'incapacité de notre économie à gérer l'abondance, notamment pour les oeuvres dématérialisées. De quoi à nouveau conclure que la meilleure façon de la gérer passe peut-être par le revenu de base.
