Homeless people to be given cash in UK trial
Homeless people to be given cash in UK trial
The UK moved to tackle homelessness, doctors hailed an asthma breakthrough, and the Swiss said ‘no’ to motorways, plus more good news
"The trial comes amid mounting evidence to suggest that giving money to those who need it is a surprisingly effective solution to poverty."

Why not just do UBI for everyone?
Government provided/subsidized and well kept basic housing would also be extremely helpful in reducing poverty.
Everyone?
Because I don't think Mick Jagger needs UBI anymore than he needs his winter fuel allowance.
I'd rather not set a precedent for it being means-gated. Some people who don't need it getting free money is an acceptable tradeoff to ensure that everyone who needs it does get it.
Appreciated.
