RE: Debate Forum - Week 8 - Guaranteed Income
No, it won't help.
Because 1 - in order to give back, money must first be taken. Taxation is theft. So essentially you're forcefully taking hard earned efforts to give to others. This should be willing, not forced.
2 -Inflation is a thing. They will have to keep taking more from people in order to give more.
3 - What's wrong with giving to your community with food/clothing items vs money? We've lost the community and now care more about giving something that only has value because we have an imagination vs. things we need to stay alive.
Do you think miners, fishermen and loggers should be taxed. They do benefit whilst pushing the costs onto society. Is this form of taxation theft?
If it isn't by express consent of the individual being taxed, it's theft.
As a side note, are they mining, fishing, and logging to get rich?
Because if that's the case then greed is a problem.
