      1/ Some thoughts: * carrying high levels of debt is bad for people, for families, and for nations * outlawing debt, or outlawing "usury" denies people the freedom to make their own decisions - if my dog needed $5k surgery to live, I'd pay 20% interest for one year, no prob! https://twitter.com/AmericanDan1776/status/1105880770944602112 …

      2/ * If you "outlaw" debt (or usury), you merely move it into the shadows. * Debt is a great tool to help businesses grow, families afford homes, etc. * a debt "jubilee" is, in some sense, impossible. If we forgive all debts every modulo 70 years, then >>>

      3/ one month before the jubilee, no debt is issued (at least, no ON THE RECORDS debt - you can be sure that black market lenders will just make people sign forward dated documents, or do without docs & threaten to break kneecaps). one month AFTER jubilee, debt operates normally

      4/ ...and in between, you just get shorter-and-shorter periods of debt, with higher inflation rates ...or you start to shade from legal / regulated debt to illegal debt. How would you like to be a young husband trying to buy your first house...10 years before jubilee?

      5/ so, in the end, we get down to: * X is a tool that can do a TON of harm, if misused * X is a tool that can do a TON of benefit, if used wisely * it is effectively impossible to ban X, because people will use it anyway guns / fire / debt /shrug

          7/ UBI is wrong bc no man should be taxed to transfer money to another (hard line libertarian version) ...or should never be taxed to transfer money to able-bodied non-needy others (softer version). Both for moral & incentive reasons. Get a job, sir!https://twitter.com/DShaw873/status/1105886847153123329 …

          In light of that and the fact that we will not fix it before, why is UBI anathema? Pic related pic.twitter.com/JgZETSvbfm

          8/ So you think in a power structure that has already demonstrate that it's willing to transfer from group X to group Y, that this new program will ... somehow reverse the trend? https://twitter.com/GolfKingYang/status/1105889364578631680 …
