True - hence the need for holisticism (?) Lowering pension age every 5 years or so would be an excellent way of working towards an eventual Universal Basic Income #ubi #UniversalBasicIncome

The 1% have the money and, for now, control of the politics. The 99% have the majority, the moral case, and a growing refusal to be distracted from who is actually picking their pockets, writes @EdPomfret of @FightInequality. commondreams.org/opinion/elo…

Well. Elon Musk is the first trillionaire. There is no amount of taxes America could reasonably levy that wouldn’t leave him insanely rich. But even a 1% wealth tax could make a difference for millions of folks in our healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Will we do it?

FFS! Elon doesn’t need to sell a single Tesla or SpaceX share. But if AI, robotics and Optimus replace millions of workers, a small levy on automation windfalls should help fund UBI. Even Elon has spoken about the need for some form of universal income in a highly automated future. We can’t wait until abundance arrives. We need to start planning for it today. This isn’t wealth confiscation. It isn’t socialism. It’s recycling a fraction of the gains created by automation to prevent mass displacement, poverty and deaths of despair while society transitions to abundance. Humans first. 🚀 #UBI #UniversalBasicIncome #AI #Automation #Optimus #FutureOfWork #Abundance #xAI

You cannot afford healthcare. You cannot afford childcare. You cannot afford rent. You cannot afford groceries. You cannot afford gas. And your taxes paid for SpaceX making Elon Musk a trillionaire. But sure. Blame it on the single mom who gets $6.20 a day in Food Stamps.
