[quote=Anonymous]https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/news/fairfax-county-pilot-program-provide-2m-guaranteed-income-180-eligible-families Not that 750 a month is a ton of money, but hasn’t this already been tried other places? Is it scalable? The nature of this program is that it only works if kept small-scale and it only helps the families selected. If the county decides to tout the results of this program as a win for equity and decides to implement it for all eligible families, then housing and prices will go up and we will be in the same situation we were already in, except now you have a new welfare dependent population. The county would be better served by examining the policies that make life unaffordable here in the first place.[/quote]
