Re:A decentralised Universal Basic Income platform based on ... by skybrian on Monday December 11, 2017 @01:08PM (#15898905)
Since the 1980's, the Fed has been very willing to raise interest rates to fight core inflation. Businesses now expect that. So it seems like inflation worries based on what happened in the 70's are overblown.

The Fed doesn't target housing prices. But a basic income (not tied to a job) should make it more affordable to move away from high-demand areas, reducing demand somewhat.
