2. Basic Income can be good for business in B.C.

  • +$6.6B/YR GROSS OPERATING SURPLUS
    Putting money in people’s hands lets them spend it in their local economies, driving business growth. It could add $34 billion to BC businesses’ gross operating surplus within 5 years — or up to $132 billion in 25 years.
  • +$3.4B/YR PRIVATE CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
    Basic Income could add $18 billion in new private capital investments within 5 years — or up to $67 billion in 25 years. It could cause businesses to hire and spend more on wages for workers.

  • +$4.6% IN TOTAL WAGES
    Basic Income could support B.C. workers by growing total wages $6.3 billion a year on average over 5 years, or an increase of 4.6% by year 5.
