The idea is simple: The payment of a basic monthly income, funded with tax revenues, of 100 Namibia dollars, or about €9 ($13), for each citizen. There are no conditions, and nothing is expected in return.
An approach like this says that the people you're trying to help are productive, hard-working, and smart, and that they know better what they need than you do. If they get drunk, you're wrong, if they start businesses, you're right.

Glad you are back posting. This post is interesting, I have no problem with the premise I wonder if it is time limited and if so if a gradual decrease in the "stipend" isn't helpful because no matter how much you tell people it will stop at some point I have seen how much "denial" plays a role.
