Yea I could foresee paying a flat rate to the utility just for them to maintain the hookup, and perhaps that comes with a whole home battery that the utility uses to buffer peak load. That would change the incentives and cost structures quite a bit, and I think for the better.
What I take away from the concept even more though is the equity component, ties in with what we discussed recently #1404823
The stock accounts for newborns, sovereign wealth fund / the government stake in Intel, SBR, tariff dividends, and so on... all sniff of equitizing citizenship.
If we frame states as corporations in an globally anarchic system, then citizens are shareholders, and "UBI" becomes a shareholder dividend. Not sure how to label such a system, Populism with American Characteristics?
