With that the house push through what could be historic tax reform. The first 55,000 and average family of four earns will not face a single penny of income tax. It passed without a single democrat. The bill republicans brought to the floor today is not tax reform. It is not even a tax cut. Reporter senators are debating a different version of the bill the scene to be facing the same split.

The president seems optimistic. We will have to wait and see. We havent even talked about the individual mandate with obamacare. All week we have been talking about the future of humankind and Artificial Intelligence. One concept being discussed and practiced in some areas is this idea of universal basic income. The more i am joined by scot santos. Thank you for joining me. Explain universal income and how it might work in the u. S. Universal based income is an amount of money provided unconditionally to citizens without conditions universally. It is provided as a floor. This is an earnings floor that everyone starts with. Month to month. All earnings from work are added on top of the base income. Is this something that is currently used in other areas . Universal based income does not exist anywhere in the world yet. The closest example is in alaska. Everyone has received a dividend on an annual basis since 1982. That is not large enough to be considered a basic income. It is about on average 1000 a year. If it was 12,000 a year that will be considered basic income. With that be enough to allow people to meet their basic needs . Imagine if you were asked if 1000 a month would be a good enough raise to be helpful to you for meeting your basic needs. It is a floor. Everybody received zero dollars. This would be lifting that to 1000 to start with. The income from work is added on top of that. It doesnt really work that way. If you look at welfare systems essentially those give you money only on the condition that you are not earning income. You are punished for working i losing that income as you work. This changes that. It removes incentives for work. All work pace and you are always better off working the not working. Isnt the idea because of Artificial Intelligence everything will be robotic . There isnt going to be the need for humans to do the work. Therefore putting more people out of work. And other way to look at this if we are looking at a world with half as much work then we can all be just as employed if we all worked half as much. We have to really redefine the way we work. It is odd for decades or centuries we reduce the work week and now we are at 40 hours a week and we consider that full time. There is no reason to consider that full time as machines are doing more work. There will always be work we can do. The nature is changing. It has been changing for decades. We need to actually reform the way we go about our safety net. They are designed around this 20th century notion of work where you have a career for 30 years. It is full time and you get benefits. The new work we are doing has become available as part time work. It is temporary work. It is without benefits. We have to really rethink the way we have designed our safety net to enable this new work to actually for us to benefit from this new work and benefit from technology. We should be sharing the benefit of technology instead of all being worse off except for the few at the top who owned the machines. Is this really a viable option . Yes. It is going to be considered country after country. Already it is being experimented with in places like finland and the netherlands canada is working at this. The u. S. Is looking at this too. Hawaii is looking at it seriously. The first experiment is starting in stockton california. There is also going to be another experiment as well we dont know the details. There are experiments all over. This is a serious thing that will happen. More conversations to be had on universal basic income.

With all with my husbands freedom on the line. Do i feel a sense of responsibility . I will carry this for the rest of my life. There is no separation from myself and the people that died. I dont believe there is a separation. I believe they are always with us. I believe there has to be a greater purpose and a greater reason. We have to make it that way if there is an. Is in. Do i feel responsible . I will forever carry a great burden. Reporter allison would not comment on the criminal case or on the owners of the warehouse building.
