Abstract Global GDP is more than 100 trillion dollars, yet 10 % of the world’s population still live in extreme poverty on less than $1.90 per day. No one should have to live like that: alleviating poverty is a minimal moral obligation implied by nearly every secular and religious moral system. Unfortunately, neither economic growth nor conventional international aid can be relied upon to fulfil this obligation. A global basic income programme that transferred $1 per day from the rich world to each poor person would eliminate extreme poverty directly and at negligible cost. It is the least we should do.

现在就结束贫困：全球最低收入的案例

摘要 全球 GDP 超过 100 万亿美元，但世界上 10% 的人口仍然生活在每天不到 1.90 美元的极端贫困中。没有人应该这样生活：减轻贫困是几乎所有世俗和宗教道德体系都隐含的最低限度的道德义务。不幸的是，无论是经济增长还是常规的国际援助都不能用来履行这一义务。每天从富裕国家向每个穷人转移 1 美元的全球基本收入计划将直接以微不足道的成本消除极端贫困。这是我们至少应该做的。
