I recently posted to my SelectedWorks:
The Administrative Efficiency of Basic Income
Abstract:
Basic income advocates typically praise the administrative efficiency
of universal income maintenance. This article exposes several
misconceptions, unwarranted generalisations or careless assumptions
that permeate discussion of the administrative properties of basic
income. Each of these obscures a significant constraint on the
possibility of administrative savings, or else inflates the likely
size of such efficiencies where they do exist. Our analysis also
reveals a number of important political choices faced by policy makers
and advocates intent on implementing an administratively efficient
basic income policy. The absence of systematic administrative analysis
in the basic income literature has obscured these hard choices.
