Mincome refers to the Manitoba annual basic income experiment, which took place in the 1970s. In these times of COVID-19, with mental health and economic problems rising in tandem, and with the introduction of stimulus checks, the idea of universal basic income is making more "cents" than ever. What if you received a minimum basic income, regardless of whether you worked or not? How would that affect healthcare? Would people stop working? Or is universal basic income the key to better public health? In this episode, Case Confirmed interviews health economist Dr. Evelyn Forget to shed light on these questions and more!
