"We should explore ideas like universal basic income..." [More]
And from whom will the wealth be transferred? I don't suppose participation on the producing end will be optional? Or that strings will be attached to the receivers?

While it might be tempting to conclude this Opposite Day "progressive" multibillionaire does not understand basic economics, I'd argue that he does, and more importantly, that he understands control.

As for his self-confessed guilt for all his "luck," that's probably because he realizes everything he offers lacks actual value.

He should feel free to send everyone a check from his personal account.

As for government taxing to effect the same result - NO!

That's the problem. Liberals don't want to spend their money, they want to spend _yours_.
