Guaranteed Income Debate Edges Toward Congress
The article traces early advocacy by Milton Friedman and Moynihan for guaranteed income and the shift from ADC to an income maintenance system. It covers Nixon era debates, Shultz push for work incentives, and the final 1969 proposal detailing a federally supported program with a $1600 family of four floor, work requirements, daycare for mothers, and state funding shares.
