Wole Coaxum is the CEO of MoCaFi, which has distributed over $52 million in basic income payments. I thought, "How can I use my time and talents, which is financial services, to bring an economic justice agenda to the social justice agenda?" Related storyMartin Luther King, Jr. talked about universal basic income and guaranteed basic income just before he passed away, and I feel that we as a company are very fortunate to be standing on the shoulders of others to bring these powerful ideas into the marketplace. Some of them are through MGI, Mayors for a Guaranteed Income. Why is a universal basic income that much different?
