Not one few things tho

Overall he’s good

Ah

What is your opinion on UBI

I support it

I don’t

It fixes the problem with welfare and other benefits

I mean it’s better than other forms of welfare

That’s why people like Friedman were for it

Yeah

I’m an Andrew Yang supporter and that’s one of his main issues he’s fighting for

There’s problems with redistributing wealth morally and economically

I saw him yesterday

IRL?

He’s the most moderate

nah

Dude im in uk

Ah

ye he’s against automation etc

I think that’ll be a problem

I like his thoughts on GDP and how we should move away from it

And focus on other indexes like overall health, quality of life, happiness etc

Because as automation takes more and more jobs GPD will grow, but it doesn’t mention all the people who are screwed because of it

GDP has always been screwed

A ton of jobs will be replaced by a small amount of high skilled tech jobs

Despite what people say, it’s most accurate use is in a primitive economy

But yeah other factors is a good point

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?

https://fee.org/articles/automation-replaced-800-000-workers-then-it-created-35-million-new-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
