Economics

Universal Basic Income (UBI) is a form of income paid by the state to all individuals without any means testing or work requirements.

When people donate money, they often give to charitable organisations (e.g. Children in Need). However, money from these donations does not usually go directly to the individual, since the charity has to pay for staff, events, and other running costs. The alternative is giving money to individuals (e.g. giving money to a busker or homeless person). This goes directly to the individual but does not provide organized services (e.g. foodbanks or homeless shelters). There is less money given directly to individuals than to charitable organisations overall.

Multi National Corporations (MNCS) tend to have their headquarters based in Western Liberal Democracies e.g the UK, USA, Finland. Labour standards in these countries tend to include: a high minimum wage, strong protections for the rights of unions and good health and safety standards.

Numerous states worldwide have special support for individuals staying in rural areas with few viable economic activities. Incentives that the state can provide include lower taxes, cheaper housing and jobs. Alternatively some states support individuals to move away from such areas instead, using similar incentives.
