Verification History

AI Verified Quote is attributed to Angus Deaton at a forum at the Taipei International Convention Center in May 2016. Source URL (Taipei Times) returns 403, but web search confirms the quote via basicincome.org and other sources referencing this exact statement. Vote "for" the statement "Implement a universal basic income" correctly aligns with the quote's supportive stance ("government should be pushing basic income grants"). No more recent (2025-2026) Deaton UBI quote was found. Year 2016 is older than desired but retained as no replacement was available. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-6 · 9d ago
