  1. Great video. I had not thought of the effects of foreign capital on currencies in countries with the curse of natural resources but it makes sense. One has to wonder if universal basic income might similarly reduce the reliance of politicians on tax revenue from the average tax-payer and further shift resources and policy preferences to the cash cows and their politically connected owners. For most of us, one of the worst possible policy outcomes is a Cyberpunk style future where a handful or oligarchs control everything and the average person is completely marginalized.
