Yes that sounds right: everyone should probably be given a ration for a guaranteed allotment food each month. In NYC during the pandemic they opened up free meals for everyone, regardless of income. A society where enough food is provided by default seems like a more humane society to me.
I mean, socialism for basic needs and capitalism for status symbols is a pretty nice system. No problem doling out status symbols for productivity improvements which benefit basic needs production.
I frequently come to a conclusion personal income tax should be abolished as it punishes work.
CIT, VAT, capital gains and inheritance taxes should be enough to sustain a budget. These are all unrelated to performed work.
