This author argues that BIG will lead to “Soviet Terror”.
He lumps BIG with laws against bungee jumping. That’s a first.
There is no evidence he read past a single article on the Swiss proposal.
When he says the government will run out of money, he hasn’t heard of Alaska or of the cuts to other programs that many BIG supporters are ready to see.
Surely articles opposing BIG will improve. I support BIG but could write a list of concerns more plausible than these.
