Annie Lowery, a business reporter, wrote the book Give People Money: How a Universal Basic Income Would End Poverty, Revolutionize Work, and Remake the World, which advocates that the federal government adopt a universal basic income (UBI) under which every person in the country would receive a monthly check of $500 to $1,000. She argues that "in a society as rich as ours...everyone deserves a guarantee of financial security." Source: Annie Lowery, "Trump Should Just Give People Money," New York Times, July 7, 2018. Is Lowery correct that it is the role of the federal government to guarantee that people have financial security?
