Research has shown that a Universal Basic Income allows for a more productive and fulfilled population. With an amount based on the federal poverty line and average cost of living, UBI guarantees an unconditional cash transfer to every citizen regardless of income. By demolishing welfare programs such as SNAP that discourage working more because benefits are reduced as an individual does better, the money used for these programs could make UBI a viable, and preferred option to help abolish poverty. We want the US government to research ways to implement UBI, as well as looking into its effects on the social and economic situations of the population.
