An income guarantee is just a good idea anyway. I'm sure there's an argument to be made that higher taxes on those few people hoarding $85 billion will just have them move their money or themselves offshore, but an income guarantee seems like such a good part of a stable safety net.

How else will I afford the $25/month subscription to NBR?
