Re-sharing this for the Monday morning readers - New article about the failures of #UniversalCredit to provide adequate Social Security.
New space to evolve into #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI.
The article is open access, so its free for anyone to read. 👇
Published today!
Our new article questioning if #UniversalCredit has ended Beveridge's idea of Social Security. We find that #UniversalBasicIncome #UBI is a far better solution.
