Thank you for commenting here.
You are right in saying that Basic Income is not enough. We only need to insist that it is necessary in the modern world. Other things need to change as well for complete transformation.
I suggest that your comment “…rising debt burden on those who cannot meet it, and increasing accumulation of wealth in few hands…” refers to the need to socialise the benefits of the two fundamental monopolies. These benefits are, at the moment, captured by private sectional interests.
Allowing this to continue amounts to governments' gross neglect of their “fiduciary duties” and needs to be made actionable at the bar of a well informed public opinion. We need a team of public spirited lawyers to discuss this basic failure of governmental responsibility.
The two fundamental monopolies are, of course, private control of the value of natural resources (including urban and agricultural land) and the private monopoly of creating a nation's money supply as a private enterprise instead of as an administrative, fee earning service to society.
