Increased automation is a good thing. We shouldn't hold back progress just so we can pay people shitty wages, that's only delaying the inevitable and being miserable while doing so. Address the root problem head on.

If we were to do a UBI, woukd you be in favor of a voucher system instead if straight cash? Like say, this coupon can be used for utilities, this one for rent, etc?

No, because targeted subsidies tend to encourage those industries to increase their prices since that covered amount is considered extra. Just look at student loans.

Who would willingly clean toilets if they didn't have to?

An interesting side-effect would be a vast wage-increase for those sort of shitty jobs, because there'd be a vastly diminished labor supply.

Exactly. Without the coercion factor of survival, the cost of labor will reach its true market value.

I use them pretty much exclusively online, in which case they're really just another Amazon. The nice thing about them is that they offer free two-day shipping without a membership fee and I can return items at a nearby store. It's good to compare both Wal-Mart and Amazon and pick the better option to keep competition going.

also I lived through the entire 80s so I know what I"m talking about I was born in 1980 and was a teenager in the 90s and in my 20s were the 2000s

so I know what the fuck I'm talking about so Listen when I say the 90s were LEET

I wasn't born in 2000 if that's what you're trying to say. You lived through the 80s as a child, childhood brings a heavy bias.

$50k annually


The numbers others have been using is more like 12k annually. It really is basic.
And everyone wouldn't get it, just adults


$12k annually? What is the point of that?

It won't even pay a year's rent in a lot of cities.

Then people relying entirely on UBI would:
1) Move to a cheaper area.
and/or
2) Live with multiple people to pool their UBI money together

Entertainers don't save lives, but they make lives worth saving.

Except there's a massive glut of "entertainers". We live in an age where games come in bundles, sometimes to the point of literally being worth a dime a dozen. Tons of musicians, artists, video creators, etc put their works up on the internet for free just in the hopes of getting noticed. In the internet age, replication, distribution, and even creation are all easy and cheap. There's enough free entertainment out there that would last anyone several lifetimes. The reality is that laws are written to try and restrict that supply.

TC, people deserve to make money any way they can, so they can live a better life.


so theft is ok?


Lmao the reason athletes get paid a bunch is because people are mornic enough to spend a shit ton of money on the sports industry, ergo they are highly valued in the market. No theft involved, theyre just reaping the benefits of the millions and millions of sports jocks out there spending all that money on a literal game. So either blame the system or blame the idiots who actually help fund hundreds of millions of dollars for a damn game. What you expect these athletes to do, not take the money? Please. Furtheremore it's well documented athletes donates a higher percentage of their income to charities than pretty much any other profession. But hey, we know you're here to troll so I'll leave you to it


That's only part of the story. ESPN, for example, has so much weight that they can throw around, that they force cable companies to charge ALL subscribers to pay a "sports fee" to pay for ESPN, even if those subscribers don't watch ESPN at all. They can get away with it because they can threaten to pull ESPN from that cable company's offerings completely.

entertainers help the economy through advertisement


An entertainer does not save lives. A heart surgeon does.

how do you know? entertainers could uplift someone's spirit, giving them drive to live another day

This is such a bullshit excuse. Anything could do that. On the off chance that some guy farting loudly into a megaphone uplifts "someone's spirit, giving them drive to live another day" should he also be awarded millions of dollars?

Ultimately people are saying "they have justly earned that money because they have earned a lot of money". This is what happens when money is your god. Well, I guess I can look forward to such insightful responses as:

"ur peanut bitter and jelly"

and

"they make moar money than u so ur rong"

This is ignoring the fact that we actually have been heavily involved in Syria.

Also, we likely funded the terrorists who started the "civil war" since we've been looking to overthrow the Syrian government for decades now.
