Pittsburgh (dpa / lsw) – Baden-Württemberg Finance Minister Danyal Bayaz has campaigned for a kind of basic income in the education sector. Although he is not a supporter of an unconditional basic income, one should work for one’s money, said the Green politician on Monday in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But a basic income for education is an interesting idea. Bayaz spoke as an example of 10,000 or 20,000 euros for each newborn, which can be used for education, university fees or training. You have to think about it, he demanded.
Bayaz is in the United States this week with Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) and a large delegation.
