I almost think it will only be a matter of time before we have to accept some type of universal income. The breaking point might be when they fully automate driving jobs. If you put all the uber, delivery, OTR truckers, and bus drivers out of work, that is a large piece of the economy. Where are all those relatively unskilled people supposed to find work?
We are already getting rid of so many other jobs due to automation, that will only increase as well.
At some point UBI might be unavoidable.
Switch to Nationalist Socialist economic policies. End the Fed. Back the value of money with manpower and creation of real-world goods and services. Make automation what it is: a tool, to be used by creative people to move society (and by extension: the economy) forward. This shit isn't rocket science, and we've been in similar dilemmas (albeit for different reasons) before. All of these problems could be fixed, in a relatively short amount of time, if the greedy oligarchs didn't suck the proles dry of all their accumulative wealth.
Where do you draw the line on automation? Should we eliminate self checkouts, ATMs, and robots at factories?
When the ruling class is eliminated you can have UBI.
ubi bypasses the banking class.
UBI in this current government would mean breadlines in cities, confiscation of property for rural residents and death.
UBI with niggers also means a population explosion and eventual mass starvation, even if implemented as you intend.
