basic income and minimum wage is about the same thing, its just a matter of how it gets taken out of our paychecks.

I disagree that basic income and minimum wage is about the same thing.

I would be interested in where you have got the data from for that assertion that it was because of a tech boom and subsequent real estate boom. At the moment I believe the person who actually employs people as a large manufacturer than what is mentioned here in a comment.

If you would like to give your sources, I would be interested.
