I think this is where terminology breaks down a bit, but my reading of "basis of" is taken as being loosely equivalent to saying a superset of. In this same sense, logic can be seen as the basis for all mathematics. Anything that is math is also strictly logic, hence math is a subset of logic. |

I don't think that there's any formal system you can use as the basis of all Math, though. For example, ZFC can't talk about proper classes, but we'd like to be able to make statements about the class of all sets, and the collection of all classes, etc.
