I’m moving $1B of my Square equity (~28% of my wealth) to #startsmall LLC to fund global COVID-19 relief. After we disarm this pandemic, the focus will shift to girl’s health and education, and UBI. It will operate transparently, all flows tracked here: https://t.co/hVkUczDQmz

The Canadian government is warming up to the idea of Basic Income.

There's something that lowers your blood pressure and heart rate. It makes you happier and alleviates symptoms of depression – yet you won't find it at a pharmacy, and doctors don't prescribe it.
