Spain Left Wing MP: all young persons in the country €20,000 for their vote
 

[Spanish minister proposes
€20,000 ‘universal inheritance’
from age of 18
Yolanda Díaz says money for study,
training or starting a business would
ensure ‘equality of opportunity’]


[Spain’s leftwing labour minister,
Yolanda Díaz, has proposed a scheme
to tackle social inequality by giving
every young person in the country
€20,000 (£17,000) to be spent on study,
training or setting up a business once
they reach the age of 18.
According to Díaz’s Sumar platform,
which announced the policy before
Spain’s snap general election on 23 July,
the initiative would cost €10bn,
which would be raised by taxing the rich.
Sumar said the aim was to guarantee
“equality of opportunity” regardless of
people’s family backgrounds or earnings.
The payments, which would begin at
the age of 18 and continue until the
age of 23, would be accompanied by
administrative support to help people study,
train or establish their own business.]
