Thank you for publishing this topic and also the clipping!

The concept of a Guaranteed Basic Income I got to know in 2006 the first time and it never left me again. I started a special blog in 2008 - writing over 100 articles just about this topic. I got excited because my blog was well visited and I remember vividly the first day I got 700 readers.

Eventually I stopped blogging for I ran out of headlines and content. It is all in German. I give you the link - and hope you don't mind - most people I guess, cannot read it:

Here in Germany the politicians on top mostly ignore the topic although the citizens did a huge amount of work on it and it entered also partly the program of the political parties. Our election this year offered the opportunity to even vote for a new party with this single topic.

So there is a lot going on. The biggest movement is though in Switzerland. The best known figure is "Daniel Häni" when it comes to Public Relations- he has a huge "fan base" as well. I can give you a lot more information if you are interested.

They actually got 23 % for their application that the basic income should be a referendum (Switzerland). Which is quite impressive for the first run. There will for sure be more.
