Enrichment
Should the Super-Rich Pay for a Universal Basic Income?
16th April 2018
The new book from Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes is a terrific short read and one that I highly recommend for sixth form economists interested in the growing debate over inequality and trialling different forms of universal basic income.
This video is a recording of his talk at Chatham House in London in early April 2018. Hughes argues the case for a system of guaranteed universal income for people in work.
