We need to await the results of the Finnish study[1]. As an aside, I wish all politics would take an experimental scientific approach as the Finnish are doing. They are randomly selecting 2000 unemployed in a specific area and trialling the basic income for two years. I hope they have also selected a control population. At the end of two years they will assess how the scheme affects cost and employment status of that group.
