If AI is going to take our jobs then UBI is absolutely necessary.
That, or an internment infrastructure currently being used to deport immigrants that can be easily refactored to house chain-gang denaturalized citizens who criticized the upper class... which will come true first?!
When the permanent unemployment rate starts to hit 25% or more, we are either going to have to have UBI, or reduce the population by the unemployment rate.
Which solution will be endorsed by which party, and how will they implement that solution?
Be reminded that Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller has already told Trump that he wants to reduce the population of America from 350 million to 100 million. That's about a 70% reduction. What do you suppose his "solution" would be?
Elon Musk was defending UBI recently.
This version of UBI is a capitalist trap. Make everything a subscription, make everything rented not owned, replace most jobs with AI, give you a monthly allowance. Now you need to feed all that money into their products and services, and they can make sure you'll never have enough to escape. Its feudalism with extra steps and some computers.
And it's the AI companies who are going to have to pay it, either directly or via taxes.
