[quote=Anonymous]Alaska currently pays its residents $1000 to $2000 per person. They've been doing this for a while. Some places in NoVa are looking at doing the same thing - Arlington and Alexandria. DC also does this. So for those who say they will move to NoVa, good luck. https://www.npr.org/local/305/2021/10/26/1049266089/montgomery-county-to-weigh-sending-800-a-month-to-low-income-families-for-two-years The folks who are going to be in the pilot will be vetted by the county. You can't sign up for it. The county will hand select the people. While I'm not a fan of UBI, at least it's not a free for all. Whether the money comes from special appropriation budget or federal money (as NoVa is doing), it ends up in the same pot that gets doled out however the county sees fit. How did the Stockton experiment go?[/quote]
