Universal Basic Income

So you're saying because the government is to blame, it should be ignored?

Did somebody say that?

So if I get you correctly on the other stuff it's that houses and bread that is equal in niceness to the 1950's should cost an equal percentage of median wage, and it's only the really nice stuff that's now commonplace is skewing the percentages? Do you have anything to back that up?

I don't know what the percentages are, and I don't know if they are skewed. The only data I have seen are what I discussed: that the percentages are skewed by housing related choices. I don't know if the data are accurate.

On bread, that would be worth looking into.


Originally I was referring to net effects adjusted for an entire domain.

Did you?





Is this fake news?

What do you think I mean by category change?

You said that in places where the government has kept their hands out of the market, it's "as normal" which I take to mean unchanged compared to historical data. Which I doubt (I'd love to see a source,) but even if it's the case, it's not true for the overall market. For the house buyer it makes no difference what the reason is, the effects are the same.
