摘要

我们使用微观模拟来评估在12个撒哈拉以南非洲国家，预算中性的全民收入下限在财政上是否可行。我们考虑了慷慨程度下降的三种普遍基本收入情景：贫困线、平均贫困差距以及目前用于人均转移和补贴的支出。前两种可能不可行，因为实现预算中立所需的增税幅度很大。

Are Budget Neutral Income Floors Fiscally Viable in Sub-Saharan Africa?

We use microsimulations to assess whether budget-neutral universal income floors are fiscally viable in twelve Sub-Saharan African countries. We consider three universal basic income scenarios of decreasing levels of generosity: poverty line, average poverty gap and current spending on transfers and subsidies per person. The first two may not be viable because the required increase in taxes to fulfil budget neutrality is significant.
