What about surplus value? No mention of it! Labour produces capital. So the reality of this notion is Economist really shouldn't be talking about economics. This man produces nothing therefore he lives off the avails of the working man (productive masses) what this guy is talking about is live labour apposed to dead labour. One should remember that productivity creates unemployment so this Theory is crap.Keys to the kingdom what a load of shit.

What is natural is for individuals to earn a living by working (labor), using tools (capital). All of this takes place on, in and from land. What is unnatural is individuals "owning" land and charging others for the right of access to their own earth. Labor and capital earn their living; landowners do not because they do not make land and do not create its value. The community creates all land value which is the proper income for community via taxes not taxes on capital and labor.

This seems too optimistic, and I wonder about the professor who attributes "property is theft" to Marx when it comes from Jean-Pierre Proudhon. Marx was his student at one time.Proudhon argued for mutualist organization and criticized both capitalism and "dogmatic communism". Another thing, the professor brings up the outmoded idea of "natural law". That applies to biology, not to human social organization.

you miss the point....just starting a new business is like setting up your own website and miss the heavy traffic of YouTube for example...whereas if we had capital ownership in YouTUbe (determined by content and hits and all that, the real media broadcaster would emergy as a function of what the ppl really want....this is not about starting your own business although that is fine too

Capitalism is the way! Thanks Paula for sharing this wonderful information. You have inspired me to start a new business

I agree Paula.It's the love for what is, not divided from what is. When you will live your responsibility, you should not be forced by anyone. Money forces people to do things they don't want to. But they have to to survive.People should have the power to live who they are. Nobody's master and nobody's servant.

why should one man own any part of mother nature more than another...I think it is a question of love for mother nature, responsibility to care and appreciate her gifts including our fellow man. then our life is full and we will have passed through not missing anything and settling only for money, power, body guards, secrets and bamboozlement to fool others into believing they are not equally entitled to OWNERSHIP

"basic income is a little demeaning."I don't think so. We just should share the abundance mother Earth is giving us. Everybody has the right to be, to live and creating the world they want to live in. When it depends on the power of capital (enslavement), man can never bring what they want to bring in this world.

basic income is a little demeaning.....shared ownership goes (as Prof Ashford says) according to natural law. Next week we will go over the METHODS to do this, methods that were hijacked and mostly is known today as "the leveraged buyout" and because of it's imperfect use devastates companies and runs people out of work WITHOUT a share in the capital of the company
