Finland will hand out cash to 2000 jobless people to test universal basic income 10 years ago
Well they're doing it for 2000 people, so I would assume this is more of a test to see what behaviour jobless people exhibit when given a basic income. They're not rolling this out nation-wide yet. I'm all in favour of UBI because I believe there simply won't be enough work for everyone. But I can understand running a study first to test the waters. 2000 people sounds like a good number too. It's expensive, but if things continue in the way that they're trending, then it's a necessary expense.
