@terrybright @lico337 I'd rather the Chinese continue their race-targeting virus research.
You fight in the streets. They'll fight you in a lab

@VraserX @robmactwit @Sportjunkie53 Once you have lost that litmus test, your capital structure will begin to decay as you burn through your abundance.
You have to continue the same mechanisms that built that abundance and automation in order to upgrade it and stay ahead of scarcity.
You need entrepreneurship

@VraserX @robmactwit @Sportjunkie53 This is collectivization. A charity economy means that all the means of production are collectively owned
Once they are collectively owned, there are no longer prices. Without prices, you can't calculate input value versus output value
You've lost the litmus test of economizing

Universal high income would not just mean people having more money.
It would mean millions of humans finally being released from the constant low-grade panic that shapes almost every life decision today.
Imagine waking up without the background fear of rent, bills, food, status, survival.
Imagine choosing what matters based on meaning, curiosity, love, beauty, health, mastery, community, instead of economic desperation.
Some people think that world would make humanity lazy.
I think it would expose who we really are.
A lot of today’s “productivity” is not purpose.
It is coercion with better branding.
In a world with universal high income, the most human parts of life could stop being side quests.
Raising children.
Making art.
Building strange things.
Caring for each other.
Learning deeply.
Starting over.
Healing.
Thinking.
Living.
Yes, some people would drift.
But many more would finally have the space to become themselves.
That is the part critics miss.
The goal of civilization should not be to maximize the number of people trapped in necessary labor.
It should be to maximize freedom, dignity, and human flourishing.
AI and automation could give us that world.
Not a world where people are obsolete.
A world where survival is no longer the price of existing.

@VraserX @Sportjunkie53 You're falling into the abundance trap
Markets and competition produce the efficiencies that lead to the abundance. If you stop doing markets and competition, and continue using the same capital structure, you will eventually fall behind scarcity, burning through your abundance.
English

The money would come from the huge productivity gains created by AI, robotics, and automation.
In a post labor economy, most value would not come mainly from human workers anymore. It would come from machines, software, infrastructure, energy, data, and capital.
So the question is not how to take money from working people and hand it to people without jobs.
The real question is who owns the automated economy.
If AI and robots can create enormous wealth with very little human labor, then part of that wealth can be returned to everyone through things like public ownership, sovereign wealth funds, automation taxes, or dividends.
Universal high income is not charity.
It is society getting a share of the abundance its own technology creates.

Hitler speech 1922:
“…he knows well enough his economics brings no blessing: his is no chosen people: he is an exploiter: the jews are a people of robbers. He has never founded any civilization, though he has destroyed civilizations by the hundred. He possesses nothing of his own creation to which he can point.
Everything that he has is stolen. Foreign peoples, foreign workmen build him his temples, it is foreigners who create and work for him: it is foreigners who shed their blood for him. He knows no ‘people’s army’: he has only hired mercenaries who are ready to go to death on his behalf. He has no art of his own: bit by bit he has stolen it all from the other peoples or has watched them at work and then made his copy. He does not even know how merely to preserve the precious things which others have created: as he turns the treasures over in his hand they are transformed into dirt and dung.”
