Here's my debate via 53 min audio on #BasicIncome at #libertarian FreedomFest 2018 in Las Vegas against Dr. Barbara Kolm, director at the Austrian Economic Center. The debate was moderated by syndicated columnist and scholar Veronique de Rugy, with about 100 people in attendance. I supported my Federal Land Dividend, a libertarian version of a basic income that leases Federal Land and distributes some proceeds back to Americans. This version of a basic income does not raise taxes and will eliminate other redundant social programs. https://youtu.be/1AhvXaVDLFQ
