Guess I should have claimed the gold! <br /> · ReplySite Administratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875957529020130816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821171613970632856.post-62409290839869858442021-08-16T21:11:04.700-04:002021-08-16T21:11:04.700-04:00Had another thought about funding UBI---AN IMPORTA...Had another thought about funding UBI---AN IMPORTANT TOPIC AS FUNDING UBI IS THE PRIMARY CONCERN OF MOST COMMENTATORS I responded to a FB comment made by astute Academic (Will Thurber) who introduced another academic who suggested simply printing money to increase the money supply to fund a UBI, AND SO I RESPONDED!<br /><br />Never heard of Stephanie Kelton but her idea sounds a lot like mine. <br /><br />"No problem funding UBI", I say---"Simply print and distribute enough money as a stimulative economic asset being careful to distribute just enough that will be spent but not enough to over stimulate the economy to huge inflationary levels. <br /><br />My idea is that UBI will bring perhaps 90% of the worldwide poor population into a new much larger consuming population resulting in economic growth and development greater than in the industrial revolution and profiting all sectors of the economy---the people, the capitalists, and governments. <br /><br />Every $ that can be borrowed for 5 cents/year and used on average 3 times a year earns gov'ts $142.35 HST alone (.13X3X365), ENOUGH TO PAY INTEREST FOR 284,700 UBI $ IN A FUTURE ECONOMY WHERE FEW WILL WORK BECAUSE HUMAN JOBS BE STOLEN BY HIGH TECH AND HUMANOID ROBOTICS SO IN A WORLD OF FEW JOBS, UBI$ WILL HAVE TO BE DISTRIBUTED TO MAINTAIN A VIABLE ECONOMY TO SUPPORT THE WORLD'S HUMANN POPULATION. UBI$ WILL IN FUTURE BE CONSIDERED A STIMULATIVE ASSET LIKE ANY OTHER ECONOMIC PRODUCT AND NOT A DROWNING LIABILITY! <br /><br />Read my proposal at this link--https://fairjobsforcanadians.blogspot.com/2020/07/an-economic-system-to-better-float.htmlSite Administratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875957529020130816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821171613970632856.post-3126242883636991572021-08-16T21:10:50.548-04:002021-08-16T21:10:50.548-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Site Administratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875957529020130816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821171613970632856.post-52138285369142982952021-01-25T01:03:32.112-05:002021-01-25T01:03:32.112-05:00Comment from Bill Longworth
