Actually, at least an order of magnitude more money is created by the private sector than by government. The private sector invented "kicking the can down the road".
Planned economies don't have to accompany a basic income. Give everyone a choice whether they want to enter the free market, or pursue their happiness on their own. Our goal is knowledge advancement; business is not the most efficient way to advance knowledge, because it is too short-sighted and focused on next quarter's stockholders' report.
What incentive was Kleinrock, et al. responding too, when they created the internet? Not economic. They simply wanted to connect computers long distances apart so they could communicate easier. Kleinrock has explicitly denied any economic motivation for the internet.

Today's anniversary gives us a chance to remember a salient fact about the Internet's origins. It was a government project, built with your tax money, because private companies (namely AT&T and IBM) didn't see enough profit in the idea. That's what government is supposed to do--take on important jobs shunned by the private sector.
The private sector resisted the internet. From http://sloanreview.mit.edu/art...:
The idea of an ongoing struggle between results-oriented managers and technical visionaries is not new. Economist and sociologist Thorstein Veblen noted it in his 1904 book The Theory of Business Enterprise. Eighty-some years later, John Kenneth Galbraith cited Veblenâ(TM)s view to describe a dynamic still at work in a more modern economy:
"The businessmen, for good or ill, keep the talents and tendencies of the scientists and engineers under control and suppress them as necessary in order to maintain prices and maximize profits. From this view of the business firm, in turn, comes an obvious conclusion: somehow release those who are technically and imaginatively proficient from the restraints imposed by the business system and there will be unprecedented productivity and wealth in the economy."
A basic income is one way to "release" individuals from having to work for little Napoleon bosses more interested in playing control games than disruptive innovation. Hold challenges (like DARPA, Google Bug Bounties, X Prize, kaggle.com, Netflix Prize, etc.) to stimulate creativity.
