That’s how subsistence farmers were dragged into the market economy. Colonists liked doing that.
But this was also done in the past for military campaigns. Provisioning an army is hard work. It’s easier if soldiers can buy stuff with gold along the way and the king demanding the gold back from the population. It’s the more realistic way currency use formed instead of the “suppose we want to barter” story. Villagers not going along with the program got torched.


Yeah, it usually means overstaffed with too expensive workers.


They assume AI is only to get much better and will be able to replace higher expertise levels every year until everybody developer is replaced.
pedofiles

Less people go to church so they need to diversify the brainwashing locations.
and the consequences of the Iran war still haven’t hit fully


That the same for taxes that UBI would depend on. See Panama papers. Corruption and loopholes are an issue in any system.


Yes, there is a need for tariffs, based on worst cause estimates of pollution, for countries not playing along.


Anything but doing UBI, lol.
Yeah, there seems to be a lot of resistance to giving money, replace systems and taxing parts of UBI.
Reworking existing systems seems easier.


They always weasel out of taxes. My idea was to give each person something like carbon coins that works like an emission permit. Give everyone the same amount each month and keep it within nature’s limits. Then, if someone wants to do something polluting like run a datacenter, they’ll just have to purchase the coins for that from the open market from those willing to sell. The end result is still money going to the poor but not as a tax, and hard limit on pollution.
You have to say quart instead of liter or they don’t get it. It’s close enough.


It just means they have to write “mistakes” or “performance issues” on the paperwork instead of “replaced by robots”

They’re going to try and buy all the right politicians to remove the competition so you don’t have any choice.
Just one more thing losing contact with reality.
