As I understand it, some small Indian tribes already have something very much like guaranteed income for their members, funded from casino profits. Anecdotally, the outcomes seem to mildly positive - worth noting, but not that dramatic; the social issues in Indian country are quite simply huge, and it's not quite clear that even a guaranteed income is enough to make a dent. I'm not aware of any formal academic paper analyzing these outcomes, however.

Derived from misunderstanding by the stupidest explorer that ever lived, Christopher Columbus. Indian = from India, a country in Asia. An Indian state in the country of India is the topic of this article.
