@keds_economist: Is the answer to #ai disruption a #ubi universal basic income? I am much more ambitious than that. I think we need to fix power in our economy by addressing its structural issues, not throwing money at the people adversely affected by them. #childcare #union #health

So far, there is no wealth being generated by AI. They are all betting back ans forth with each other there will be which is creating the illusion of wealth.

I am a living example of how this works. I'm a disabled veteran. I get my health coverage from the VA, and I get a disability check every month. I work in tech, got laid off last year, and have been OK ever since. We're not doing great, but my bills are paid for and I have health care when I need it. It's such a relief. Every American should have the safety net I have.

The point of UBI is worker empowerment. Workers will negotiate much better conditions/pay/etc. when they’re no longer desperate to avoid starvation.

UBI just props up a bad economic policy/philosophy.

Snipping the employer ties to healthcare & retirement benefits would obviously give workers portability. Employers could no longer take advantage of these vulnerabilities.

Reagan. The fact that both politucal parties just accepted the "Reagan Revolution" as good is maddening.

I don’t think you’re taking away advantage from rich kids when you’re elevating the non-rich kids. That’s like saying you’re taking away food from a person when they have 3 apples and you hand 2 different apples to someone else that has 1 or 0. You’re evening the playing field. Nothing gets removed from the person with 3 apples.

I wish we could get some political leadership around programs like this or even strong grass root support. Fight the political division in this country. I think a lot more people support many of these policies

Love the proposals. But the political structure will never allow this. We don’t have a democracy, and the military budget alone will continue to strip away our future health and security.

I love your point of view. You are solution oriented as well as pointing out the problems. I L O V E the idea of Medicaid for all. My husband and I are currently researching countries in Europe to see what they do for their citizens.
