This paper compare two alternative social politics to reduce poverty and income inequality in Brazil. The first one is a payment of a universal fixed income, called Basic Income Grant (BIG), and the second one is a Negative Income Tax (NIT), pay only to the families with low incomes. For analysis, we use a Computable General Equilibrium Model. The results had shown that the BIG is better that NIT when the costs of administration associated with the NIT is higher than 50%, and that for a cost between 0 and 50% the adopted program goes to depend on the strategy of poverty reduction.Downloads
