  • I know this is a meme community and probably not the right place to ask. But the meme prompted my question and I promise this is a good faith question.

    If labor is entitled to all it creates (i agree! In principle), who determines what that is? For example - someone operating an injection molding machine might “create” a million doodads in a year. But the machine and the material and the electricity and the QA of those doodads are all created/done by someone else. How is that divvied up?

    Personally I am leaning toward UBI funded by a capital tax, along with a functional labor market, as kind of a solution here. But I’d appreciate any easy-to-digest references.
