Pub date: 2019-05-01

Notes from Week 4: Inequality - Universal Basic Income:

The Venn Weekly: ATTORNEY GENERAL TAKES THE STAND William Barr testified in front of the Senate Judiciary Court this week to defend his handling of the Mueller investigation. But before the hearing had started, the Department of Justice released a letter Mueller had written to Barr expressing misgivings about his 4-page summary of the investigation. The summary, Mueller wrote, "did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance of this Office's work and conclusions." In this episode, the NPR politics team makes sense of this latest development in the fallout from the Mueller investigation.

Episode: Putsch comes to shove: Venezuela
Pub date: 2019-05-01

Notes from Week 4: Inequality - Universal Basic Income:

The Venn Weekly: “THIS WASN’T A NORMAL PROTEST, SOMETHING UNUSUAL WAS GOING ON” Tens of thousands of Venezuelans poured onto the streets this week calling for the resignation of President Nicolas Maduro, who they blame for the country’s political and economic chaos. While Maduro said in a speech on Tuesday that he had successfully seen off the attempt to topple him thanks to the “loyal and obedient” Venezuelan armed forces, opposition leader Juan Guaidó insisted Maduro was "already defeated" and encouraged protestors to remain strong. In this episode, The Economist discusses why this latest round of protests feels different and asks: what can history teach us about coups?

Juan Guaidó, the opposition figure widely viewed as the legitimate leader of Venezuela, has made a dramatic attempt to seize power from President Nicolás Maduro. But the effort appears stalled; how did he go wrong? We look more widely at coups around the world, why they succeed or fail and even how to predict them. And, a dramatic embassy raid reveals why it’s so tough to be a North Korean dissident.

If you've ever flown in economy class on a plane, you probably had to walk through the first class cabin to get to your seat. Maybe you noticed the extra leg room. The freshly-poured champagne. Maybe you were annoyed, or envious. Social psychologist Keith Payne says we tend to compare ourselves with those who have more than us, but rarely with those who have less. This week, we explore the psychology of income inequality, and how perceptions of our own wealth shape our lives.

Episode: A basic income for all?
Pub date: 2019-03-21

Notes from Week 4: Inequality - Universal Basic Income:

The Venn Deep Dive. Podcast 3: MONEY FOR NOTHING “Do humans need to know they won’t survive in order to work?” This is the question that sits at the heart of discussions around a Universal Basic Income (UBI) - the policy idea that proposes creating an economic baseline that would combat financial insecurity by giving everyone an unconditional, regular cash payment.  Perhaps the idea of ‘free money’ seems too good to be true. But it is an idea that has long held bipartisan appeal, with proponents ranging from Thomas Paine to Martin Luther King to Milton Friedman. With growing levels of inequality being exacerbated by automation and the ongoing erosion of lower-paying jobs, UBI is gaining traction in the political mainstream. In this episode, Business Daily examines whether this policy could help address the problems associated with inequality in our technology-driven era.

Would a Universal Basic Income help solve inequality or make it worse, and would it protect us from robots taking our jobs?

Finland has just completed a two-year experiment in doing just that. Manuela Saragosa speaks to one of the grateful recipients of the pilot project, freelance journalist Tuomas Muraja. A similar approach has already been taken for many years by some charities in the developing world, as Joe Huston of the GiveDirectly explains.

So how does it work? Anthony Painter of the Royal Society of Arts in London says the financial security it provides allows people to be more creative and invest more in themselves. But Professor Ian Goldin of Oxford University is sceptical, saying there are more effective and affordable ways of helping those most in need.

Episode: Andrew Yang’s Audacious Plan to Save Us from Automation
Pub date: 2019-04-03

Notes from Week 4: Inequality - Universal Basic Income:

The Venn 2020: INTERVIEW: ANDREW YANG Automation will continue to decimate the labor market, argues Presidential hopeful Andrew Yang. And as it does, the financial insecurity facing so many Americans will only get worse. So where lies the answer to this technology-driven dystopia? Yang proposes a radically different kind of economy starting with a ‘Freedom Dividend’, his rebranded version of a Universal Basic Income (UBI).  By putting $1000 per month in every adult’s hand, Yang believes he can not only create millions of new jobs and grow the consumer economy, he can also combat the income volatility holding back the many Americans he thinks remain trapped in a ‘mindset of scarcity’.  Yang is the first presidential candidate to build a campaign around UBI. He likely won’t be the last.
