If you aren't qualified for jobs then society OWES you a Universal Basic Income! It's your RIGHT as a living breathing human being!!!


Can you genuinely not see the issue with entire fields being slowly chipped away at by outsourcing and robotics and the economic strains it will cause? Have you seen what happens to regions in the United States where industry wanes? They get poor. The money dries up. The ability to acquire easy income to pay for a degree that gets you a high-paying job? That stops being an option.

The concept of a UBI is to prevent this happening on a mass scale, for example, when the most common U.S. job (transportation) is gradually eaten up by self-driving cars in 20-30 years.

I think that's just how life goes. If Truck Driving isn't an occupation anymore then you need to find something else to do.

what else can you do with a CDL but drive?

many jobs, esp low skilled ones, are going away and they're not being replaced with anything
