> This is very misleading reporting. ... Slightly less than one-fifth were employed before but unemployed during the pilot (17%)

From the article:

> The report shows nearly three-quarters of respondents who were working when the pilot project began kept at it despite receiving basic income.

While they didn't say "83% of people kept working" saying "nearly three quarters" is much easier to read. The article under-reports the number of people who kept working, if anything.

Edit: formatting.

Not really demographics, but from the article:

> while some people did stop working, about half of them headed back to school in hopes of coming back to a better job.

Thought you were on Kobo for some reason. Might be worth grabbing a cheap one as a Pocket + Overdrive device, it's a pretty great combo ;)

On your Kobo go to Hamburger Menu > Settings > Accounts, then do what it asks to sign in to Pocket.

Once that's done you get a "My Articles" option in the hamburger menu, and that's your Pocket content.
