I recently came across the idea of Universal Basic Capital (UBC): "granting every person a meaningful ownership stake in productive assets from birth." UBC would be enormously difficult to implement, as well as have its own weaknesses. It doesn't seem realistic, but introduces a new idea into the conversation.

How do you prevent people from being swindled and selling their stake off? If it can't be sold off, how's that any different than a corporation tax?
