AltInst: Stakeholder Society

The Stakeholder Society, by Bruce Ackerman and Anne Alstott.

This book proposes that the federal government give each
citizen $80,000 upon his or her 21st birthday, to ensure
that every American will get "a fair share of the nation's
resources as they accept the full responsibilities of adult
life." The hope to narrow differences in opportunity
due to family income.
