This question aligns with Chapters 2 and 3 of Writing a Research Paper in Political Science.Review the CQ Researcher article "Universal Basic Income (UBI)." Which of the following is a school of thought that you could develop to answer the research question: "Under what conditions might universal income be a good idea?"

B. To Promote Creativity: Artists and entrepreneurs often do not receive enough funds from their work to keep moving forward with their ideas. Society and the economy benefit if creativity flourishes.
C. As Long as People Deserve It: If people are poor enough to quality (through means testing) and have tried to work (and either can't find it or have another obstacle such as health of care responsibilities), then the government should provide UBI.
D. As Means for Undermining the Cycle of Poverty: Studies show that poor children growing up with the basics are more likely to have better nutrition and attend school for more years. Both of these developments have positive impacts on their ability to support themselves as adults.
