How does your economic theory jive with the incredible job losses and business movement from CA to Tx?

Do you simply create a high tax/high wage/high regulatory environment nationwide?

If you can accomplish this destruction of the 10th Amendment somehow (since by design it will never pass all 50 states), how do you stop continued manufacturing flight to other countries?

Doesn't job growth in TX prove that even more companies would offshore, if they can?

Convincingly explain how someone working harder at a small biz than average 9-5er, enduring our wonderful regulatory state and it's endless complications, would accept the idea of BI?

Put another way, how do you convince self starters who outwork the average to better themselves, to accept living wages on those who don't work/aren't as dedicated-in the form of presumably higher taxes?

Also, have you always/ever voluntarily donated a percentage of your professor salary towards a charity(or cut a check to the Treasury itself) that would help others for as long as you've been a proponent of basic income? If not, why?

Sure, agreed. Also the reverse is true.

How would lending rules be different if we had basic income? Creditworthy people with good biz plans generally get funded now, not seeing how a pile of cash with lax lending rules helps society, sounds like graft city to me, perhaps I'm misunderstanding you though?
