Guaranteed Minimum Income

...or a negative income tax. Reason has a bare-bones article on the subject. Its a left-libertarian thing. The social contract is important but minimizing government coercion is important as well.

The idea would be to replace welfare with cash payments to everyone or a negative income tax based on the current system. No more humiliation of drug testing etc... improved efficiency in distribution. There is an industry built around the welfare system. Is it truly necessary? Does it serve itself more than citizens.
