I do feel like this is a perfect moment for the western world to ween itself off its USA dependence. I think we help provide the US with its global power by buying into the narrative. Itās not that we make it powerful ā it can do that itself ā but we are a key ingredient.

Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
