Living Wage v Citizens Income
#2
I have given this very important issue some more thought and come up with the following conclusion. Again could be paid for through more progressive taxation and closing of tax loopholes.

Putting it basically:

LIVING WAGE - figure to be established through discussions with trade unions and organisations such as the Joseph Rowntree Foundation

MINIMUM WAGE - payable to employees, amount calculated on income or profit of business. Where practical employers would be bound to pay a sum at least equivalent to the living wage.

EMPLOYMENT TOP UP PAYMENT - payable to bring the wages of employees paid below the living wage up to the living wage level.

CITIZENS INCOME - means tested payment to provide sufficient income to cover costs of basically housing, feeding, heating and clothing each individual.

UNIVERSAL INHERITANCE - one off payment to all citizens at the age of 25
