@NopeNotByMe @Timcast We need declining birthrate to reduce chance of societal collapse as robots/AI replace human labor. I agree that specialization & entrepreneurship increase, but commercial real estate is cratering already and residential collapse is picking up steam (boomer deaths & layoffs)

You can't fund UBI through taxing AI The math does not add up You need greater input than output for the system to function and taxing AI to give UBI generates massive output with insufficient input. The cost of the system will be greater than the revenue dispersed creating a negative feedback loop and economic regression The argument then becomes that UBI will only be supplemental but you still run into the inflation problem again. When given a choice between working 40 hours a week and receiving 10K UBI and 15K wages many people would choose unlimited free time and 10k In order to then hire someone for jobs we cannot automate you have to then increase pay for those jobs thus the cost of the good increases and the 10k supplemental now is largely useless for most goods and services I break the question down like this How many people do you know play guitar? Most say quite a few How many would choose to be a musician professionally if they had the choice? Most say in fact quite a few How many have the talent to actually make it? none if any And that still assumes most people would choose to pursue a passion with some economic benefit The reality is that many people would choose UBI and 40 hours of some creative work that ultimately provides no functional value to society and that generates no revenue. We effectively use tech to subsidize net negative output from people That system is bound to implode The most important thing to understand is that there are core necessities such as housing and healthcare that cannot be meaningfully automated. UBI is a pipe dream that can't even exist in a society with replicators from Star Trek. Land is still owned or leased and money is the means of distribution. If you want to argue for government control of property then youre just arguing for techno-communism

@bradenk @Timcast The political power shifts need serious consideration. So does the declining birth rate. Short term, I see AI accelerating specialization and the gig economy. Long term, I see real estate becoming immensely valuable.

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast It's a hypothesis. Could be developed more for sure. I would be curious which factors are missing so I could address (or at least think about) them. UBI won't work at scale. Our best bet is to right size our labor force by eliminating variable labor supply corporations $arbitrage

@bradenk @Timcast Thank you, Branden. It's an interesting article. There are some factors at play you don't address, but the general gist is good.

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok If automation and AI were to do away with ~30% of the current human labor force. What would you suggest. Out of curiousity.

@Jim849529967812 @Timcast @grok Yes, you can. Which is why I stared with a basic principle: "The belief that government is responsible for providing you with everything you need." You either beleive that, or you don't. But you never said either way.

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok At the end of the day. You can twist whatever it is you want and call it communism and hate it. But it still won't be communism...

Is the exchange rate two bevers for one deer because takes more labor to get a deer than a beaver? How do they tax my beaver? (a little Adam Smith humor). Back to it: Under capitalism, the market controls the value of $. UBI give the government more control of the market. It does so by giving it direct control of the subjective marginal utility of $. UBI allows the government to alter incentives, resource flows, and political dynamics in ways that favor state influence. No, it's not full-blown central planning, but you don't need central planning to achieve communist ideals. Google "the capitalist road to communism" if you want the complete outline.

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok He was not no. And making the the determinant from the buyer sides labor is leading directly into the subjective theory of value. The labor done by the buyer determines price. Just like what an individual is willing to do in order to acquire a good for exchange... 🤭

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok The theory behind communism is the labor theory of value. That is the fundamental underpinning of communism.

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok >At its core, Communism is the belief that Gov. is responsible for allocating resources to the individual Communism is hijacking the subjective theory of value in favor for the labor theory of value.

You keep saying that, yet you haven't demonstrated basic knowledge of...well...anything. Certainly not of Friedman. Since you're begging me for lessons, here they are. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" - Karl Marx At its core, Communism is the belief that Gov. is responsible for allocating resources to the individual. The USSR, Mao's China, and the Eastern Bloc states all tried to do this and failed. Under capitalism, the government’s role is limited to protecting rights and enabling voluntary cooperation, leaving welfare primarily to personal responsibility, family, and community. Freidman believed in capitalism but was pragmatic enough to know that the gov. couldn't end welfare all at once. His NIT proposal was an attempt to wean the gov. off of welfare, not create more of it.

@Jim849529967812 @Timcast @grok No. Freidman argued that charity was the proper way to alleviate poverty, not government support. He saw NIT as the most economically efficient form of welfare. Yes. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs."

@NopeNotByMe @Timcast @grok Again. Did Friedman argue that people with no income should receive direct cash payments from the government? And if he did. Is receiving direct cash payments from the government communist?
