The lecture presents a paper. The paper looked at how Basic Income would be provided in Ireland.
Assumes it’ll be funded by tax.
Around 8:00-8:30, the common view is it’s not afforable without prohibitively high tax.
9:20 says it’ll be €203 a year (at 2019 levels). Then they say income tax would stay the same, a lot of tax credits would go. USC would be raised and replaced by a payment to fund Basic Income. At 10:50 he says the core of it. Increase employer PRSI a bit.
