There really should be more stuff here tagged with #yanggang. I'm surprised there isn't. Regardless, I've upvoted this and followed you. Cheers!

Thanks! I used Renderforest for the animation.

You don't have a very solid understanding of UBI. I don't disagree that the way we create money currently is nonsensical, but your aversion to UBI is based on a lack of knowledge. For example, you listed

Thanks! I've been told in conversations with others that this particular argument is particularly strong, so I wanted to make sure and finally put it in blog form for people to use and share.

Thanks! Yeah, if we zoom out and look at the point of markets as being for efficient and optimal resource allocation, what we see around us is obviously not efficient or optimal.

If you check again, you'll see it's already there. Do a ctrl-f search for it and you'll find it. Cheers!

Magical thinking? UBI is based on scientific observations. Everywhere it's been tried, the results have been positive. Do some research. Read the results of the Namibia and India experiments. Read what

handing out money is destructive to the VITAL price discovery system of which any resource based economy is based off of. To the contrary, there is no price discovery possible if people don't have money

Wow, you really think you know a lot of things you don't actually know. Okay, so you've never read that Milton Friedman supported UBI. Does that mean he didn't? Or does it mean you just haven't read where

Sorry, but Alaska is not an example of communism, and Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek did not go down in history as free market communists. You show a poor understanding of what UBI is and what it

I have absolutely nothing against your sharing my article here on Steemit via a Parley link. In fact, thank you for doing so, as it helps spread the message. I do however wish to point out that your link

When you stop to think about it, our labor market is broken for work no one wants to do. When it comes to pricing for a job with low demand, employers should have to do more to make that job attractive.

Italy is actually one of the few countries that goes about their existing system so ridiculously, that universal basic income (actual UBI too, not an income-means tested flat benefit for those who qualify

Thanks for doing this podcast about UBI! Upvoted, followed, and resteemed. FYI, for future UBI related posts, #basicincome is the primary hashtag. Cheers!

I made that image for a slide presentation and share it often. The sources are available here: There's also this article I wrote specifically about UBI and entrepreneurship:

What an odd post. Your image is actually correct. Yes, once basic needs are covered, people have other needs that they seek to meet. What's so weird is that you assume jobs are the only way to meet those

Your math is the usual napkin math, which is wrong. UBI cannot be calculated like other programs because it's a program where people are paying to receive money. Thus the cost is the net cost not the gross

Just FYI, months ago I reached out to Blockfolio to get Manna listed, because that's the app I use, and shortly thereafter Manna was added. I'm not really sure if I had anything to do with that, but regardless

Please don't spread this misinformation. The experiment did not fail. It was not cut short. The experiment was designed to go from the beginning of 2017 to the end of 2018. It will continue as planned
