Groundbreaking Revelations on Guaranteed Income

Starting in 2019, a guaranteed basic income effort known as SEED started giving 125 individuals $500 a month for two years, with volunteers chosen from neighborhoods where the median income was around $46,000 or below. Director Sukhi Samra and researcher Amy Castro Baker have closely analyzed the results of this experiment, and they discuss their findings with Hari Sreenivasan.
