would best form of taxes be a VAT and property tax on most valuable parts of cities??? I think my only issue with UBI is the idea its not clawed back as you make more income, or at least it isnt in yangs version I feel like a VAT would be a hard sell but there must be some angle

No clawbacks is the *point* of UBI. Clawbacks/means-testing etc. mean you're punished for trying to improve your situation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welfare_trap …

i thought you could phase it out in such a way that every point you are still making more money, i dont mean clawing it all back at one exact point but phasing it out gradually

Well yeah you fiddle with the tax rate so people earning 50k or whatever have the same post-tax income as they did before UBI.
