Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel will form a task force that will consider implementing the so-called “universal basic income” program in the city, as the embattled mayor seeks to cement his progressive legacy after promising not to run for another term.
The idea for the program, which would make monthly payments to a number of Chicago families without any conditions, has been floated around in the city for months now.
Back in June, Chicago’s North Side Ald. Ameya Pawar introduced a resolution calling upon the mayor to launch the pilot of the program and pay 1,000 families $500 every month.

Pay them to do what?
The first city to become a total communist city within our borders.
A strong economy produces opportunity... get government out of the way
Democrats mantra,take from the working class and give to the rich and poor.
If you are going to just give them the money it should be used to better themselves and become productive members of society and not leeches.
Dave T: Rahm, you truly are a maggot. Just can't get enough power or control to fulfill your tremendous greed and lust to control everyone. Great to know, hell is a well designed place custom fitted for people like you.
It doesn't work. It's been tried many times before.
They caused their own poverty. They have no one to blame but themselves. They sit on their azz and hold their hands out. Gimme, gimme, gimme. They don't take care of anything and then complain about how they live.
More drug use money.
