The Institute for Economic Justice (IEJ) issued a statement challenging the Centre for Development and Enterprise's (CDE) opposition to a basic income grant (BIG) in South Africa. The IEJ argues that poverty and economic exclusion are the primary barriers to growth, asserting that social protection and progressive taxation can stimulate the economy and create jobs, contrary to the CDE's claims that such measures are unaffordable or would hinder growth.
