So much.
Ubi is pointless because automation will crash the dollar to begin with.
So let's kill ourselves now.
That is a larger worry isnt it
No point living in a future with so much suffering.

I don't want to be a survivor of mad max future.
There's nothing to look forward to.

I don't particular see the concern over automation
Automation will be the 21st century Pandora's box
The crash of the dollar isn't a nuclear explosion.
I'm supposed to feel silly about my own points, because Rye would like to argue we're fucked either way.

That's what a fiat currency is.

if a machine replaces a janitor, then that janitor just doe something else that is now in demand.
Don't you know money is evil
Unless there is no demand for his skills
Was valued
Because robots do most of the labor

This doesn't happen so much anymore.
Less and less of it will.

well his skills have to change to meet the demand, not the other way around
When the car replaced the horse, the car didn't also replace the DRIVER.
This time, the car replaces the driver.
now, if that isn't possible, that's a concern.
It's vastly different from anything we've dealt with before.
however, we are far from that.
for most of the population.
Not far enough away that we can handwave it

sure, probably hundred or more years away
