RE: Property rights and Basic Income - A viable solution is possible
I think you are bringing your own preconceived ideas without reading what I wrote.
If the economy is not growing then there is no basic income. If it does grow it isn't funded by taxation nor price inflation.
I like the perspectives and insights you wrote. I find them to be relevant, but not comprehensive to the problem at hand. We are all discussing our preconceived ideas (which makes this a productive discussion). I find there are other aspects which are part of a hugely complex situation. Theories of changing global macro/micro-economics cannot be easily covered in a blog. All fiat currency, in one sense is a measure of work/worth and flexes based upon many factors.
My point is this: when it comes to the work and reward of people over generations, the situation becomes very complex. There are social, emotional, economic, and psychological, and time-based factors in play. To define a strategy around a 'basic income' requires such a measure to first be defined. This is problematic.
