Where does the money come from? Will the resulting inflation offset most or all of the value of the "basic income"? Will the massive increase in government expenditure make the country less competitive? Etc. etc. And anyway as Fae said, this all seems to be fairly far afield from the topic of this list. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe>
