I literally do not understand the people that can look at our reality, our history, and the extreme greed that is pervasive in our society and still think “automation will allow for UBI!” It’s literally redistribution of wealth from the same greedy people that fight against any kind of taxes
Automation simply means more profit for the ownership class. If we can’t find work, we just die. They have absolutely no issues with that fact. :/

That doesn’t make UBI a bad idea. It makes allowing the ownership class to continue to exist a bad idea.
100%
I don’t think UBI is a bad idea. I think as you said, allowing the ownership class to exist as it currently does is the bad idea for sure.
