该项目于本周一在纽瓦克市启动,首批30名居民试点,计划到今年秋天扩大到400人。收入保障无条件地向直接发放现金,没有任何附加条件,也没有工作要求。这些人一年会获得6000美元,一些人每隔一周能得到250美元,另一些人一年两次能得到3000美元的支票。

Newark families and individuals will begin receiving cash payments worth $500 a month with no restrictions on how they spend the money, under a guaranteed income trial program addressing housing insecurity, Mayor Ras Baraka announced on Monday.
The so-called Newark Movement for Economic Equity program will begin paying an initial group of 30 recipients as soon as this week, followed by another 370 households this fall, for a total of 400 participants in the two-year program, which is being paid for through private contributions from foundations and individuals.

挺好的,Newark那地方确实又穷又乱,经过两次印象深刻。人至少有了最基本的生活保障才谈的上文明。
