@Quinton Rogers Productivity isn't high enough to justify a UBI just yet, but its getting to the point where automation will take over a lot of the jobs people do today. I would say in 50 years or so that society will look drastically different. We would have to tax the income of individuals or corporations and redistribute that wealth to keep the economy going. Otherwise the money will start to accumulate even more at the top and people at the bottom wont be able to fuel the economy. Its simply a logistical issue and isnt about laziness or responsibility or whatever. Some of the smartest people in the world acknowledge this is just the way the world is going. A lot of people won't have to work because everything will be done by machines. What else do you think is going to happen when the robot revolution occurs? You see whats happening with Amazon, right? Jeff Bezos is a billionaire many times over and robots are taking over more and more of the work. Soon there will be hundreds of millions of people without work. What then?

[@LexoG33]

@Quinton Rogers No, you make the richest Americans pay taxes

[@LexoG33]

@Quinton Rogers there's plenty of fucking money, especially if the rich would pay their fair share. There are corporations in this country that make billions and don't pay a dime. Trumps tax cuts didn't do a damn thing except make them richer. They're hoarding all the wealth and removing money from the economy. They're not reinvesting that money into workers, they're artificially boosting their stock. It's another bubble situation. Everytime there's substantial tax cuts and deregulation, there's a short boom and then a bust. Get ready for another economic depression coming up. And cut the military budget. We don't need our taxes going to the people who make new tanks and planes every year. Why should war mongering military contractors have more job security than the rest of us? And if you think someone is gonna get $1000 a month and stop working altogether, maybe you're the lazy one.

The problem with paying for everyone to go to college is that college will get more expensive. It will continue to get more expensive until the entire federal budget cant pay for it. This is the same upward curve of healthcare. Without competition there is no incentive to reduce cost and every expenditure seems reasonable. When you look at current rates of college attendance and graduation it is clear that most people dont need college to get through life. They can always go later if they want.

I think most airports are privatized except they rely on DHS for security and you cant privatize federal air space so the air traffic controllers are federal employees

Can't trust private contractors with airport security

[@petersolano560]

Joe, airport security was privatized prior to 9/11. Businesses cut corners in security to raise their profits (no background checks, no drug testing, very little training, low pay for screeners, poor technology etc..). Smaller airports would suffer as they could not afford a standard level of security and open vulnerabilities to another attack. I get your point, but that example of privatizing airport security has already been tried and it contributed to the colossal failure on that day.

If the government gave roads, and other services to the private sector you'll end up like us in the u.k. paying for shoddy roads and public transport.

2 things: -I am certain there are some things the government could privatise without major setbacks, however saying that there is a lot, and not naming even one, seems a bit overconfident. -the number you are looking for is 3,72 trillion dollars every year on "basic income" alone, if you realy want to give it to everybody not discriminating against children. That is more than the entice current US federal budget, which is round about 3,33 trillion dollars. About 1,3 trillion of that is social services which could be cut out, leaving round about 2,4 trillion dollars of extra income needed. Good luck.

Private roads, fuck off Fear Factor.

[@zepher664]

Privatized services tend to suck, and be overpriced. And how would anything be different if those things were privatized? The government is shut down because it isn't funded, so even if it was private companies doing the work, the government is still the client and still is unable to pay.

[@kevinsheane6362]

Historically private companies, as oppose to government, cost more money as as much profit as you can get is the priority. Not saying improvements are not needed. Health care in the U.S.A. is by far the most expensive in the western world. That is with 25 percent of citizens having no or insufficent coverage. Been checking around and can't find anyone from other countries who say they would rather have our healthcare.

Universal income is the only realistic solution I can think of when artificial intelligence is a majority of the work force.

I think this matches quote fits JR well. INTELLIGENCE - Not because you think you know everything without question, but rather because you question everything you think you know. Both sides have corruption and issues, he makes decisions but is willing to change his mind with more insight.

UBI is far more expensive than one thinks.

[@Cronhour]

Except we've privatised public services in the UK and they cost more and the service is worse. Also compared to public versions in Europe such as rail the UK version provides a worse service for a higher cost. Fyi the most recognised health service in the world, is the NHS.

People that have to associate themselves with a party contributes as much to the problem as the politicians. "Pick a side! Choose a term to fall into! Be the category! There are no individuals!". And let the people pay for what they want. Most taxes are absolutely bullies taking your lunch money.
