Finland basic income 'did not help jobless'

quote [ Although people ended up happier, the government hoped it would help the unemployed to find work. ]

Another perspective you could take is that the basic income kept many people from worse situations when there weren't enough jobs.

Without reading the article is this is addressed, there are a chunk of people who really aren't useful, even if they are eager to work. I work with some of them. And if there was a good system to just pay them to stay out of the way, society would be better off for it, rather than trying to find every gomer a job.
