Our World (2007)

The Finnish Experiment (2019x4)

Air date: Feb 02, 2019

Finland has just completed a two-year trial of so-called 'basic income' for the unemployed. Two thousand people, who had been receiving unemployment benefit, were instead given 650 dollars a month, with no strings attached. Our World followed four people over the two years to see what impact the experiment has had on their lives.
