Related: About this forumMike Malloy - Bernie Sanders Is Just The Beginning
The idea of a basic income for every person has been popping up regularly in recent years.
Economists, think tanks, activists and politicians from different stripes have toyed with the idea of governments giving every citizen or resident a minimum income off which to live. This cash transfer could either replace or supplement existing welfare payments.
Is this just a utopical concept?
Mike talks about the dream of equality and the change that Bernie Sanders represents.

This is why I decided to support him a year ago. This is why, no matter what, I will never regret a thing I've done for his campaign, with the possible exception of wasting time trying to defend him on some message boards to some asshats with agendas.
