Unfortunately Dan's series wasn't packaged neatly into a flashy video and will likely not get much exposure. Have to admit, did not read all of it, so the links are handy to catch up later on.

Sad but true. He didn't use any ad hominem attacks, didn't make a video, and didn't try to do anything except lay the concepts out succinctly and clearly. One would hope that Steemit will be the place where that kind of content flourishes, and to some extent it does.
I wonder how he'd feel about someone summarizing his series and making it into a short video (or a couple short videos. @dan? I'd be happy to take up that mission :-)
@donchate, I'd highly recommend a read/re-read, it was some of the best stuff I've read since joining Steemit honestly.
Agreed, some of the best stuff out there. Do the vid!
Definitely needed. I think it's safe to say this will be done at some point.
As a supporter of some versions of "UBI" and opponent of most, I'd be very interested in a video making the ideas more vivid.
I remember reading Dans posts some time ago, but the amount of necessary semantic and theoretical preconditions makes most posts such as these a very lenghty and often confusing read.
Having some videos to accompany them would be of great help for a lot of people, including myself.
(You can skip the parts strawmanning capitalists vs socialists though, because that clearly doesn't help anyone)
Ya, they were definitely very in-depth and the sort of thing that the average person just tilts their head at in confusion, then closes and walks away. I'll add a video version of the series to my to-do list :-)
