Baby steps. This is a very polarizing issue - a lot of people will complain that the receivers do nothing useful for society.

There's also the matter of funding it, but I agree with you. Making it universal and consolidating other programs into it would create some savings as well.



I feel like artists may have been a poor choice to the subjective value of the outcome of their work, who knows.. maybe they figured this was destined to fail.


Output value being impossible to measure can be an advantage if the goal is to later expand the program. I wonder what indicators will me monitored.


Thats a great point, I'd go as far as to say that it may be possible to see the 'side affects' further than first imagined with the artist group.

I look forward to the results.
