the real fun is when you do go watch x and come to a different conclusion than them

^

“Actually I think ‘x’ means this:”

I think hes saying if you give 100 dollars in taxes you should get 10 dollars from the government

“No, no ‘xm doesn’t.”

not that the numbers or precents are accurate, but thats the general gist of the idea

“Well if ‘x’ doesn’t mean what I think ‘x’ means, then explain ‘x’’s position to me.”

I respect you guys for trying to get a way to fix this

Fix what?

You’re gay

So the more you contribute the more you get back

I can’t fix your sexuality

that would solve my largest problem with the UBI

I have reach the mindset of just awaiting the mad max world

Okay so for the amount you give in you get a return that’s even

It isn’t what you wanted

But you understand that it will help you later on

Right

UBI is the only solution for a more automated society though

Oh god

Not right now, of course, but soon

please no, no UBI

I dont see an alternative solution when automation kicks into overdrive

Unless theres some sort of massive robitics convention which limits automation

automation has been kicked into overdrive for decades

war, or a new job robots can't do

but UBI can't work

Robots literally take over jobs in fallout

its mathematically impossible

Warfare is already on the table

But you can’t have a bunch of robots working in the police force

Russia and china are both pursuing autonomous weapons systems

And the idea of automated cashiers is almost nonexistent

Id be amazed if other countries werent doing it in secret

Why is it mathematically impossible?

cuz you'd either have to tax everyone 100%, making working useless, meaning the jobs you can't replace yet exceptionally hard to fill

Economies produce surpluses. As long as the UBI pool does not exceed that, the balance sheet remains positive.

or you'd have to hyperinflate every payout session

making the money literally useless to have

But then for each tax you pay 90% of it

And then you’re left with some money
