99% Invisible recently covered The Finnish Experiment: where the people of Finland are experimenting with designing (rather than simply legislating) a universal basic income system through iterative design and scientific testing. They have a test group (2,000 unemployed citizens who receive a basic income) and a control group (the rest of the unemployed population) and at the end of the test they'll collect the data and build the next policy based on the observed outcomes. It's well worth the read and/or listen. I also recommend subscribing to 99pi if you've got the time. It's fascinating to learn about how things are designed and built, especially the things we never think about.
