Mark Zuckerberg has the attention of 2 billion people, so he doesn't really need any help from us when he wants to spread the word 马克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)早就受到了二十亿人的关注,当然不需要别人帮他宣传任何想法。但是值得一提的是,这位坐拥十亿家产的脸书领袖却提倡政府要无条件给民众发钱,或者至少要给民众还钱。
In a Facebook post from Homer, Alaska, yesterday, Zuck pointed out that the Last Frontier has its own form of universal basic income, one that allocates oil revenue for a fund that is divided up and returned to residents. It's called the Permanent Fund Dividend, and Zuckerberg thinks it's a concept worth paying attention to.
昨天,扎克伯格在阿拉斯加州荷马发布了一条脸书动态,说阿拉斯加州就有自己的基础收入,主要是将石油利润作为基金分配、返还给民众。扎克伯格大力倡导这样的“永久基金分红(Permanent Fund Dividend)”方式。
It's not the first time Zuckerberg has touted the idea of a basic income for all. In his Harvard commencement speech in May, he said we as a society should be exploring different economic models as a way of making sure that "everyone has a cushion." Because not everyone has that, er, FB money.
扎克伯克推崇把基础收入返还给民众的行为已经不是新鲜事了。五月,在哈佛大学毕业演讲时,他就曾提到过,一个社会应该挖掘不同的经济模型,确保“人人有积蓄”。当然,因为不是每个人都和脸书CEO一样有钱。
