that there is a strain of libertarianism that isn't 100% pro private property rights is interesting. but i'm not sure UBI serves the purpose of redistributing the common interest in property, even in part, because that seems to depend on how the money is taxed.
- CuriousSkeptic 7y agoThat wikipedia page makes a passing reference to Henry George who argued for a single tax. That is, the only tax should be the land value tax and no income taxes would be needed, or justified. I guess an other framing would be that property owners rent property from the commons, at market value. So it’s not really a tax either, more or a rent.
