https://youtu.be/gf3n-L5FDy0?t=0m21s00:2101:070:00:46Archbishop Tutu at 11th BIEN Congress: "We stand at an historic crossroads..."We stand at an historic crossroads. One road leads up, to a higher ground of social equity and inclusion, human dignity, full economic participation, broad-based prosperity, and growth. The other road leads downwards to growing poverty and economic inequity, social conflict, increased joblessness, and pervasive insecurity. The high road involves time-honored values of solidarity, compassion, and care. The low road is characterized by selfishness and greed. It threatens the stabilities of our families and even our entire social fabric.http://i.imgur.com/S15YQhZ.png

For perhaps the first time in history we have the resources, the know-how, and the technology to make starvation and dependency relics of the past. But do we have the will?http://i.imgur.com/xetZKE0.png

https://youtu.be/gf3n-L5FDy0?t=3m09s03:0903:330:00:24Archbishop Tutu on how applying conditions tend to hurt those that most need help whereas universal grants overcome that problemThe conditions often attached to social transfers tend to prevent the poorest families, the very people who most desperately need income support, from accessing grants. Universal grants, which can be targeted in other ways, offer one of the simplest and most effective strategies for overcoming the problem.http://i.imgur.com/Hcs0XLE.png

https://youtu.be/gf3n-L5FDy0?t=4m53s04:5305:150:00:22Archbishop Tutu on how social transfers provide multiple benefits by allowing people to spend money on food and invest in their futuresSocial transfers offer multiple benefits. Not only do they provide direct relief from hunger by enabling households to buy food and other basic necessities, but they also allow families to make long-term investments in health and education, thereby increasing the impact of public spending in these areas.http://i.imgur.com/7cn8rSQ.png

https://youtu.be/gf3n-L5FDy0?t=5m42s05:4206:200:00:38Archbishop Tutu on how social transfers are not only for developing nations, but important because of technological unemploymentSocial transfers are not simply an issue for developing nations. We live in a world where technological advancements are reducing the need for human labor, particularly in less-skilled professions. Even in industrialized nations, more and more people will need to explore new ways of making sustainable livelihoods for themselves and their families. As economies change, households are likely to face more frequent periods of uncertainty and transition. Social transfers can provide vital income stabilization during these periods.http://i.imgur.com/m3GrIQ1.png

03:3705:000:01:23Roberty Skidelsky on coming to favor the idea of a basic income 1By basic income, we mean an income paid by the state to each full member or accredited resident of society regardless of whether he or she wishes to engage in paid employment, or is rich or is poor. In other words, independently of any other source of income a person may have.http://i.imgur.com/FQK9fgD.png

03:3705:000:01:23Roberty Skidelsky on coming to favor the idea of a basic income 2Now people say, "Oh dear, this'll be a terrific disincentive to work." Yes. That is true. But then the incentive to work should no longer be at the center of our aims when we are in a society of abundance. It's a scarcity perspective, and we're trying to say, "Let's let our imagination move forward to a world in which there's abundance, or plenty, and then how can we reduce the pressure to work." http://i.imgur.com/66g41tD.png
