Well, I apologize for the accusation of misquoting.
And perhaps I did miss your point, whatever it was. My position will remain that I stand with Goldwater’s assessment from his book when it comes to government programs.

Well, Goldwater may very well be right. And your position may be right also.
I never said we need a universal basic income. My only point is that not all forms are socialistic. It is NOT socialism when the only qualification is citizenship.
Do we need the government running such a program? We agree that the government does nearly everything inefficiently.
But there are some economic issues that arise resultant to the move of society from an industrial era into an information era. And these may not be resolved with cookie cutter approaches that worked in the past.
We have to apply underlying principles to new challenges.
