public school, police/fire/ambulance etc obviously

Depending on what's implemented, yeah it can be moral

Things start to get dicey when a 70% marginal tax rate gets involved.

Like if you go all the way, and start to redistribute wealth, that’s where I would say it is immoral, as it is taking something that isn’t yours and giving it to people who didn’t earn it and don’t deserve it

Same here, I start to get a little uncomfortable when universal income and things like that are discussed, but I can see the reason.

ye good point

i think ubi is a bad idea

inevitably automation is going to continue centralizing power so something is going to have to be done about it but i really dont think handing out money is the right idea

inflation will just adjust

better off to provide better social programs

but even then its not black and white, you cant just start taxing the 1% at 99% or whatever the fuck

theyll just leave the country

It is an interesting predicament. I've never really thought about the topic, though. So I don't have any ideas prepared.

tech companies already have too much power and we need consumer protection laws in regards to free speech on social media and google

most pressing issue imo

Definitely

Funny though how we need to make laws to stop people from changing the rules

yep

as tech advances society needs to protect the consumer, its been the same thing throughout history

fair

@J. that’s communism my guy

UBI is horrible

How

Just had this debate like yesterday

A finish university proved that it has no effect on the work expended

Also the argument wasn’t even an argument

Okay, so all universities is correct?

Just a conversation all one sided

Which university?

Helsinki

I think

?

I’m not sure

But if the gov. gives its leftover budget, in rather small divendends, say 300£, wide spread across the said nation, it has no effect on work effort whatsoever

Cuz you can’t live off of 300 quid

@Godzilla3301 shut the fuck up

“ThAt’S cOmMuNiSm”

that does not say communism isnt full socialism

its just saying that self descibing socialist parties "generally tended" towards a more moderate framework - social democracy

complete socialism, whereby an authority enforces the sharing of all goods and property (in theory, never actually works that way) is communism

`Marxism-Leninism and democratic socialism were the two dominant forms of socialism in the 20th century; democratic socialism advocates economic reform through gradual democratic legislative action rather than through revolution. `
