The onus is on the person making the claim to provide the evidence. Forming a company (that doesn't work in immoral areas) is a perfectly ethical and legal way of making money. UBI is not the only solution. Islamic countries have for o

> Taxes specifically on the value of land held enjoy broad academic support: land is hard to hide or smuggle out of the country, and its supply is fixed. Interesting point. As far as I'm aware though, Zakat laws do not apply to land

Sure. Zakat is a form of "wealth tax" if you will. For money above a certain minimum amount held for a lunar year, 2.5% of it is to be given to certain individuals (there are several categories of such people mentioned in the Qura

Why are you afraid to admit that your religion prohibits homosexuality? I'm Muslim, and we're not scared to say it.

Not to mention that there is no way to ensure immutability when passing messages in channels, and the language doesn't help you there. This is a recipe for race conditions. Furthermore, you can easily have hierarchies of "goroutin
