Conrad has been a UBI researcher since 2016.  Before Comingle, he designed and implemented the UBI pilot program featured in Deia Schlosberg's forthcoming "Bootstraps" documentary series.  He has also written extensively on the subject of UBI and built a "UBI calculator" tool that helps...2021-03-0145 minBoston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income137 — Modern MoneyWhat is money?  What is *modern* money?  In what ways is state-issued fiat money different from a commodity-based money?  What is the relationship between money and the state?  To what extent can a state have "sovereign" control over its currency?  What is the relationship between money and taxes?  We will explore these and other questions as they relate to the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) framework.

Nominal GDP level targeting is a monetary policy alternative to inflation targeting that stabilizes the total amount of money being spent on the economy's products.  This allows the purchasing power of the dollar to adjust in response to...2021-02-0450 minBoston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income135 — The Welfare SystemHow does basic income interact with the various programs that make up the welfare system?  To what extent does basic income solve some of the same problems that the welfare programs are designed to solve?  What does an effective welfare system and/or social safety net look like in a world with basic income?  When does it make sense to adapt existing income support programs to more closely resemble basic income?

Why does Oren Cass believe this?  To what extent is it true?  Is basic income compatible with this...2021-01-2055 minBoston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income133 — Consenting PowerTo kick off 2021, we discuss basic income's effect on the agency of individual people to live their lives how they choose.  We've previously talked about how basic income gives people the power to say no.  Consenting power is the power to say yes. When society is structured such that people have no choice but to work a job, to what extent is this analogous to slavery?  Can we say that basic income gives people more consenting power without also arguing that the absence of basic income reduces labor-market efficiency? The reading this...2021-01-1148 minUKES WITH PODCASTUKES WITH PODCASTUkes With Podcast #8 - Paul Tucker from the Mother UkersPaul and I have an incredibly deep and rich history...

Does it become a problem if the economy needs less labor?  Is it a problem if basic income leaves some people jobless?  How adaptable are psychology and...2020-12-211h 27Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income131 — Fiscal vs Monetary PolicyFiscal policy is what we call government spending and taxation.  Monetary policy is what we call it when the central bank participates in financial markets to influence private-sector lending and borrowing. So, where does our money come from?  Does it come from the government (fiscal authority) or is it the central bank (monetary authority) that creates our dollars?  How does basic income to fit in?  Is it a form of fiscal policy or monetary policy?  Can it be both?  Is it neither? For optional reading this week, we have...2020-12-121h 36Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income130 — PetrodollarsBasic income adds new money to the economy for consumers to spend.  And that money has to have somewhere to go.  The first place it goes is toward the purchase of goods and services, but where will it end up?  Two of the most common answers are savings and taxes. Even without basic income, the government is always adding new money to the economy.  Where *has* it been ending up?  For a long time, one part of the answer is that oil exporters sold oil for dollars and liked to accumulate Treasury...2020-12-051h 33Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income129 — Workers vs ConsumersHenry Ford famously insisted on paying his workers enough money to be able to buy the very cars they were producing.  But to what extent does that make sense?  When is it useful to think of workers and consumers as the same people?  Does basic income create a disconnect between these two roles?  Is that a problem? We have two optional readings this week.  The first is a 2011 blog post by former labor secretary Robert Reich entitled "Stock Tip: Be Worried. Workers are Consumers" The second is a 2012 article on...2020-11-261h 40Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income128 — Gold StandardAt the turn of the 20th century, many of the world's currencies were pegged to gold.  Gold was an international monetary standard.  And then it wasn't.  What happened?  Was there something special about gold that led us to choose it as our standard money?  Did something happen that caused gold to stop being special?  Under what conditions is gold a useful form of money? Some people say that abandoning the gold standard gave us more flexibility to properly manage the stability of our economy.  If that's true, why did we...2020-11-201h 31Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income127 — Subsistence UBIWhat is the appropriate amount of basic income for a society?  How do we figure it out?  Under what conditions would it make sense to set the amount of the payout at a level that's high enough to cover people's basic needs?  When is it appropriate for the amount to be lower than this subsistence level?  What about higher?  To what extent is it useful to try to determine a subsistence level in the first place?

As compared with classical liberalism, which advocated a hands-off approach to the markets, neoliberalism recognizes the role of...2020-11-061h 33Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income125 — Labor DemandWe often discuss how basic income might affect people's willigness or desire to work.  That's the labor supply.  Labor demand is the extent to which employers want to hire people in the first place.  What does it mean for there to be "insufficient labor demand"?  And how does basic income change things? On the one hand, basic income gives people money to buy the things that labor produces.  On the other hand, we will, perhaps, be less interested in creating jobs as a way of getting people money. For optional...2020-10-301h 33Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income124 — Resource ConservationFor our long-term survival and prosperity, we need to be careful about how we manage our resources.  How does basic income fit into a plan for resource conservation?  How can it help?  How might it hurt?

This week's session brings in five featured guests to discuss these questions. Bethany Burum is a social psychologist and lecturer and Harvard University.  She and her colleagues study cultural evolution and use game theory to explain human social behavior. Michael Lewis is a professor of social work at Hunter College.  He has...2020-10-091h 38Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income121 — Debt JubileeOur society is becoming increasingly indebted.  This is creating financial instability and slowing down our economy.  Some people suggest that the solution is to have periodic "debt jubilees" in which the debts of private individuals are completely forgiven.  This process can quickly become complicated.  What about the people who are depending on cash flows from those debts being paid? What would happen if the government paid people's debts for them?  How does that compare to an ongoing basic income that makes it easier for people to pay their own debts?  If...2020-10-021h 45Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income120 — Money ShameEspecially when it comes to our personal finances, we have a culture of shame and secrecy surrounding money.  Why is money so hard to talk about?  Is it a bad thing?  Is this "money shame" a problem for society or is it useful in some way?  Is it both? Today, people go to great lengths to hide their poverty *and* to hide their wealth.  How would basic income influence how we feel, how we think, and how we talk about our personal finances? Featured guest Conrad Shaw will dig into...2020-09-241h 51Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income119 — Basic Income's ProspectsIt's International Basic Income Week 2020 and we're living in the future.  But how close are we to making basic income a reality?  How far have we come and how far do we still have to go?  Does the world even agree on how to think about, or talk about basic income?  What will it take to get basic income supporters and skeptics on the same page? To help us sort out these and other questions, we're bringing in featured guest Jason Burke Murphy.  Jason is a philosophy professor and political organizer who...2020-09-181h 38Boston Basic IncomeBoston Basic Income118 — Social Safety NetWhy does our society have a safety net of welfare programs and government assistance?  What conditions have made these things necessary?  Is it normal for the economy to leave some people behind in such a way that they need a safety net?  Does it make sense to think of basic income as part of the safety net, or as something else entirely? For optional reading this week we have a June 2020 article from the Brookings Institute "Up Front" blog by Henry J.
