If the wind blows their way, they may get an influx of North Koreans. That should be good for their GDP.

SOHH robots are going to make everything and the governments will pay all humans to ??? eat tacos and play Candy Crush?

Seems kinda weird to just have all the humans sit back and lunch while.. somebody.. puts up the dough to pay everyone.

I'm sure there's a handy Youtube vid that explains it but I gotta stick with: work = eat. And if you're a baby or an old person someone will have to work for you. Perhaps the old person can pay them to work. The baby has to rely on kindness.

Its gonna happen. I mean, it won't be unusual for the unemployment rate to be well over 70% due to super advanced technology and a growing non white population

Here's the whole problem I'm seeing.

The unemployment rate would go to 99% since you can get paid to sit around and burn mix CDs. Watercolor. Jazzersize.

Why would I go to that instrument of torture known as my desk at work if I could stay home and drink and still have an income.

Who are these 30% of people diligently working away getting Carpal Tunnel and ulcers while 2 out of 3 people everywhere they go just chill and barbecue all the time. Constant road trips and nature walks.

So why does anyone work in the free income-verse

Cause they still get extra money to live a slightly above average lifestyle that has more income than the Basic Income checks. Greedy people with connections will always exist. Everyone else will be chilling.
