Here's an interesting, balanced article on #UBI coming out of Massachusetts, USA.
My main points of criticism are:
- It is based on short term pilot projects instead of an ongoing UBI
- It compares UBI to negative tax and similar proposals. This would require people to have well paying jobs to pay income tax
- A gradual change may not be enough for the upcoming job automation
Thoughts?

Should Massachusetts implement a program providing universal basic income?
The difference of opinion over UBI generally comes down to what’s valued most by either side of the argument: reducing the effects of poverty now or increasing self-sufficiency in the future.James Peyser (CommonWealth Beacon)
