Five thousand low-income Chicagoans will receive $500 in monthly installments for one year — via bank transfer or debit card — to use however they see fit. The pilot will be administered by GiveDirectly, an international nonprofit with expertise in cash assistance programs.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
I think they’ve got the headline wrong! It’s not a pilot, but a Plot!
Every day it gets harder to work,when I see my money being given away. Why bother?
Another giveaway of taxpayer money … and perhaps garner a few votes along the way.
Just say’n.
