140. A Georgist banking system

Today’s discussion was recorded in November 2024 and is with Mr. Jamal Thomas, the first-place winner of our 2024 Annual Writing Contest. Mr. Thomas is a college student at El Camino College, where he studies electrical engineering. He spent approximately six years in the United States Navy as a Nuclear Machinist Mate. He is also a member of California Common Ground to advocate community and state-wide political change. Together, we discussed Mr. Thomas’s idea for a more equitable banking system, and how it could fund universal basic income.
