However automation *creates* jobs
The market simply reallocates jobs
Yes but it does not create as many jobs as it loses
It creates more
It only creates high skill jobs
Not always
I got an article
What jobs would those be other than tech jobs?
I see a problem with UBI though
it's definitely a bad approach, especailly to a non existant problem like inequality.
Only two ways you can finance this, taxing the rich or printing money
Printing money will have severe consequences
The former is also not good
Is Van Zandt County, Texas its own country?
UBI will eliminate the need for welfare
and a minimum wage
It would improve overall health
So businesses will grow
I think it will be possible for UBI to be implemented without causing government spending to sky-rocket
Let's tax the rich to death. They led the takedown of our country, let's get some payback.
I'm saying without insane taxes
Why not insane taxes?
UBI would elimination the need for welfare
And UBI would eliminate the need for a minimum wage
This will give businesses more money
Which will give the government more money
Yes but would UBI ruin the rich?
How?
I don't see how it would ruin the rich
Then what's the point?
This country is trashed, FUBAR. We are due vengeance, starting with the people who led us into this shithole
How is our country trashed?
How are we in a shit hole?
Have you ever been to a 3rd world country?
This debt is not going away, for starters
Yes
Not with trump
Parties don't matter anymore.
It doesn't matter who has what power: the trajectory is downward.
