I keep telling libs that at the very least, they need to have a heavy land value tax if they want UBI to work. Because then, if they decide to raise the rent, they'll admit their land is more valuable and have to pay more in taxes. What are they going to do? Pass the tax onto their tenants? Raising rent is how they got high taxes. And if they try to ship their money overseas, well they can't since the land is the tax base.

At this point, I would gleefully settle for Georgism.
