Something small,

2018-07-26 16:58:13 UTC  

You do like it more than I do, because i would never choose that option.

2018-07-26 16:58:17 UTC  

Its a natural thing,

We kill each other over what imaginary person we should worship

2018-07-26 16:58:32 UTC  

we kill CHILDREN over that

2018-07-26 16:58:36 UTC  

Cancer is a natural thing too, doesn't mean it's good.

2018-07-26 16:58:45 UTC  

Cancer doesn't have free will

2018-07-26 16:58:52 UTC  

humans do

2018-07-26 16:58:52 UTC  

Neither do we.

2018-07-26 16:59:02 UTC  

The thing is, what we decide to kill each other over come from free will as well.

2018-07-26 16:59:11 UTC  

Well, as in, you have the choice

2018-07-26 16:59:19 UTC  

don't start that whole "do we have free will?" argument

the strands of time have no impact on the fact of

"Do i wanna kill this person in front of me yes/no"

2018-07-26 16:59:23 UTC  

Then again, you can choose not to, and then get killed anyway

2018-07-26 16:59:32 UTC  

But thats not the point

2018-07-26 16:59:44 UTC  

Back to the issue at hand

2018-07-26 16:59:50 UTC  

UBI

2018-07-26 17:00:01 UTC  

No but our chemical make up does, and that make up is not in our control.

2018-07-26 17:00:14 UTC  

I don't buy the stands of time thing eiher.

2018-07-26 17:00:30 UTC  

You or what you think of as you is not the think of your thoughts.

2018-07-26 17:01:03 UTC  

So about hte issue with UBI

2018-07-26 17:01:10 UTC  

doesn't matter,

People kill each other willingly,

The issue with UBI, is the same issue of why communism/socialism doesn't work,

People don't work for free, and when it becomes perfectly livable to not work at all, the huge majority will opt for that

2018-07-26 17:01:24 UTC  

and whatever remains will not be able to sustain it

2018-07-26 17:01:33 UTC  

The intent with UBI is that when you deal with someones most pressing issue, it would allow them more leway to move on to other issues.

2018-07-26 17:01:36 UTC  

now im off to dinner 😦 i'll be able to discuss this more when i'm back

2018-07-26 17:01:47 UTC  

No people don't work for free, they work for money, but a welfare state isn't an attack on capitalism.

2018-07-26 17:01:55 UTC  

Socialism is not welfare.

2018-07-26 17:01:59 UTC  

We are talking non labor tasks, like creativity or innovation

2018-07-26 17:02:03 UTC  

At least not in the way you're saying it.

2018-07-26 17:02:05 UTC  

Thats statism

2018-07-26 17:02:16 UTC  

No I dont think welfare is socialism, I think its statism

2018-07-26 17:02:27 UTC  

Okay, call it what you want.

2018-07-26 17:02:45 UTC  

Look, So the UBI is trying to solve this issue for this payback

2018-07-26 17:03:12 UTC  

GIve people mroe time to persue other topics. Stuff like create art, invent stuff, or get an education

2018-07-26 17:03:22 UTC  

And hopefully earn enough to go past the UBI

2018-07-26 17:03:33 UTC  

UBI is try to solve the problem of people who can't work shouldn't be forced into hell because of their lack of skills.

2018-07-26 17:03:57 UTC  

And Isnt that what welfare is right now?

2018-07-26 17:04:06 UTC  

Not really.

2018-07-26 17:04:12 UTC  

UBI is that, but for everyone regardless of income

2018-07-26 17:04:29 UTC  

Okay, who gets welfare?

2018-07-26 17:04:47 UTC  

UBI should cover that right? Thats the point right?

2018-07-26 17:04:59 UTC  

No

2018-07-26 17:05:08 UTC  

Who gets welfare?
