​The results were a win-win for the country and its creators. So now it's permanent.

      Imagine all the artworks, music, and scientific discoveries that would be made if people were just paid a basic income and set free to pursue endeavors that strike their curiosity.

          Intellectual curiosity comes in all forms. What we lack is the time to pursue it and explore where it leads us.
