In brief
The Principles
I prezzi indicati sono quelli di partenza e valgono per le configurazioni più comuni. Nessun vincolo pluriennale: i contratti di gestione sono annuali con disdetta a tre mesi.
How it would work
4 principlesUnconditional
Every resident
No means test, no obligation to seek work, no categories of eligible claimant.
Enough to live on
Reference: 60% of national median income
Above the poverty line — otherwise it does not change the balance of power and achieves little.
Individual
Every adult
To each person, not each household: that is what makes it possible to leave a home where you are unsafe.
Added, not substituted
A necessary clarification against a common confusion
Health, education and services remain. A basic income is a floor, not a trade.
The open questions
2 principlesHow it is financed
The most important open question
Gross cost is not net cost. But an adequate income still requires serious fiscal choices.
Why at European level
The right level for the decision
Not to set the amount, but because no country can move alone inside a single market.
