Universal Basic Income will likely significantly reduce suicide rates according to this huge study: "Those receiving [the cash] had a 61% lower risk of being a suicide victim than non-beneficiaries. The results were more pronounced among women and young individuals."

!["The results were miraculous.
'We used the 100 Million Brazilian Cohort (76,532,158 individuals) subset, linked to administrative mortality datasets in Brazil. To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest cohort ever created to study health-related outcomes. We evaluated the impact of the Brazilian Cash Transfer Program on suicide outcomes over a 12 year follow-up [2004-15] and observed that those receiving Bolsa Familia had a 61% lower risk of being a suicide victim than non-beneficiaries. The results were more pronounced among women and young individuals. These results demonstrate that economic interventions, such as Conditional Cash Transfers, contribute to the reduction of suicide, presumably by reducing poverty-driven hardship.'"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:weypikbrwodr2fsanloqjx6s/bafkreifpku2je255nrka7qe5iv5i3g2fyzba4of52acw777ypycjekd4m4@jpeg)
