Did you know the 91st Congress (1969 to 1971) almost enacted a guaranteed income bill? The Chapman Law Review has just published a special symposium volume: “A Fifty-Year Retrospective on Major Laws of the 91st Congress.” My contribution, however, was about “the one that got away.” Instead of writing about the many historic (and I would argue, misguided) laws that were enacted by the 91st Congress, I wrote about President Nixon’s proposed guaranteed income bill, which was approved by the House but died in the Senate. I wrote my history of the guaranteed income bill in the form of a three-act legislative morality play and called it “A Chronicle of a Political Death Foretold.” Although my essay is historical in nature, it is nevertheless very timely, for it offers many lessons to both proponents and opponents of contemporary Universal Basic Income proposals.

That was a great paper. It provided me with the historical context that I was missing in the UBI debate.
Thanks for reading my stuff!
No problem. It’s good writing above all which helps. It helped me realize that my essay on NIT could have included some of the legislative history. You live, you learn. Thanks again.
Ironically, it was your essay on NIT that drew me to your blog in the first place!
That’s good know. I always find it interesting to see how my blog is discovered.
We can now both benefit from each other’s research!
Hence why I cite your papers. They help give credibility to my arguments. Sometimes they even help inspire ideas for new essays.
I still need to go back and finish reading and commenting on some of your previous work, so I will get “on it” over the weekend and report back soon …
I appreciate it.
I enjoyed it very much. Great information and brought new insight to the topic.
Thanks!
