This is going to be interesting. This is just a trial to see what happens. This city is about 30 minutes from me and I applaud them trying out various things to reduce poverty and the stress it brings.

"A team of independent researchers will pick 100 people to receive the money. The purpose is to study how an extra $500 a month impacts people’s health and stress level. Researchers are also looking to see if people feel financially secure."
 
This will end up a failure just like Finland's program.

Just sayin' the totally obvious.
How can it be a failure? Its a study. The purpose is to gather information.

And the information will indicate that the program is a failure. What do you think the study is supposed to do? It's to test the efficacy of giving people free money. We have truckloads of empirical evidence already that doing so is an Epic Fail. Hence, I am quite confident in my prediction that this time things will not be different.

Theres no failure unless no one takes the money. Theres no success unless they get some data. Its an information gathering study.

Oh Jeebus. Fish in a barrel time.

It's not a success if people use the money to:
- Abuse drugs and/or alcohol
- Increase their lifestyle to a level which requires continuation of the free money in perpetuity
- Cut back on doing productive work so it is a $0 net cash flow impact
- Gamble it away
- Consume crap junk food like hot cheetohs

For starters.
 
A special letter mail carriers are delivering to hundreds of homes in Stockton will hopefully bring a little financial relief in the New Year.

Any of those outcomes will produce some data which would make it a success.

If you want to reduce poverty, encourage teenagers to stop having babies without husbands and fathers, stay in highschool and get a diploma, don't get arrested, and get a job, any job...that is how you actually stop poverty.....then you cut taxes so businesses can hire those people....and you make sure the police can keep people safe.....you tell the democrats to stop letting violent criminals out of jail....

The Debt is due to government spending, not tax cuts....the government spends every penny it gets and more, which creates the debt and deficit...they can't tax themselves out of holes they create with their spending...

Only if you deem success as a participation trophy.

Riddle me this: what is the purpose for handing out the money?

Typical conservative tripe and failed playbook. When will you clowns realize you cant legislate human behavior? Thats why we have laws because you can tell people not to break them but human nature always comes into play. :rolleyes:

Compensation for capitalism's natural rate of unemployment does that, not means testing for welfare.

Capitalism has a success rate....socialism has a mass murder rate....

My list of likely outcomes are things that would harm health and increase stress.

But thanks for playing.
