Bregman’s Basic Income Proposal

Bregman’s Basic Income Proposal advocates for providing all citizens with a regular, unconditional cash payment to ensure financial security. Unlike traditional welfare, this income is universal, available to everyone regardless of employment status, and requires no complex eligibility criteria. The goal is to reduce poverty, simplify social support systems, and empower individuals to pursue work or education without the fear of destitution. Bregman envisions basic income as a way to foster economic stability, promote fairness, and adapt to changing job markets driven by automation and technological advancements.
