@burgherreview Adjustments are almost always unpleasant in a market economy. In a planned economy they are disastrous.
@andersostlund by the way, what do you think about universal basic income?
@burgherreview For the same reasons as before I am against it. Income should be set by the market. Helping the poorest in society different.
@andersostlund how do you address existence of humans, who have no economic value? That is, anything they can do, machines can do cheaper.
@andersostlund market will duly set their income to zero and eliminate them in due course.
@burgherreview I don't agree with you but it will be a long discussion. My main point is that the governments should stay away from market.
@andersostlund we are on different platforms, apparently. I believe there are areas where externalities outweight benefits of free markets.
@burgherreview Help the poor by providing support directly, not by destroying the market economy. I am not wishing for anybody to live poor.
@andersostlund helping the poor sounds good, but in practice it is cumbersome, bureaucratic, and creates disincentives.
