@scottsantens How do we know that inflation won't simply erase any universally distributed funds? Doesn't this increase in income, given that the income is being so broadly distributed, just make it possible for providers of essential goods to raise prices?

@PFF My first thought was yes. Then I thought no on replay. And now I may be shifting back. In real-time it looks more like a fumble. In slo-mo it seems there's some small amount of forward motion before the ball is loosened.
