- ghaff 3y agoIt's complicated. This is a fairly good read. https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2019/9/5/20849020/alaska-permanent-fund-universal-basic-income https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2019/9/5/20849020/alaska-... Some takeaways: - It's a fairly modest payout - The payout is very dependent on oil revenues in a given year. (Alaska doesn't have income tax or sales tax revenue sources.) - It probably does some good in a state with a large rural population and high unemployment - It influences politics
