parts so that is also a very important report coming out by the end of next week so plenty to keep wall street investors anxious of there for us in new york thanks. it was written finland has an income security net that is a series of benefits to ensure the unemployed can make ends meet but the system is increasingly out of date one problem those who receive social benefits lose a chunk of them whenever they get a job that creates a disincentive to finding work so finland recently tested a basic income that is a no strings attached payment to see if that would free people to look for work today they released the results and here s how the study worked the trial began in two thousand and seventeen and was just concluded in december a period of two years. recipients receive five hundred sixty euros a person no strings attached and tax free those who receive social benefits still
receive them throughout the trial. a total of two thousand participants were chosen at random from across the country and they represent a wide range of working ages. so what were the results and employment go up have a look. tourists who come to helsinki these days end up in the city covered in deep snow with temperatures just above freezing and some might just end up in this restaurant owned by cindy martine and she was one of two thousand unemployed people who participated in finland s basic income experiment that ended in december the basic trial actually. some freedom and a kind of i think the biggest effect with psychological if they kind of got this idea that you have two years you have the security of five hundred sixty euros per month and you have to do something with that money she says the basic income she received gave her the freedom to open this restaurant and contribute to the economy
