Re: <nettime> <MoneyLab> PeerValue conference review on INC MoneyLab blog

[David Garcia <d.garcia@new-tactical-research.co.uk>]

Is it time for Money/Lab to have a candid discussion about the "Basic
Income" model.

This was put to the vote and defeated in Switzerland but as automation
grows and is now touching previously "white collar" middle class jobs
the impetus accross the political spectrum is to take this seriously.

It could be that the economic impediments to implementing this might
be substantive as well as ideological. Would Money/Lab be a place for
a candid examination of the different models being proposed and what
the practical challenges that would be in introducing it.
