A full basic income (BI) would be enough to live on modestly, but with dignity, enabling one to participate in public life. There is no compulsion to work, but most people want to work for pay to top up their incomes, to meet other people, for job satisfaction and to be recognised as someone who contributes to society.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-sleek-node-id=\"3lyCUD\"\u003e\u003cem data-sleek-node-id=\"0gtyuQ\"\u003eRigorously researched and simply explained, this book shows the potential of the basic income concept – a regular, unconditional payment to everyone in the country.
