Everyone who does it here in Miami is a foreigner who speaks no English and likely bought their account from a grifter who resells accounts

Better self driving cars and AI taking entry level white collar jobs, we’re going to have a lot of unemployed people.


To build a country based on services seems like it will be a mistake

Who is going to buy things when no one has a job?

Enter Universal Basic Income, reducing the cash economy, and enhancing digital currency

Pretty obvious where this is headed

There will be plenty of folks who refuse to let a robot drive them at highway speeds, and I'm sure a company will step in to serve that market.

It’ll be like how pizza deliveries used to be, they won’t deliver to certain areas.

Food delivery gigs aren't getting replaced by tech that quickly, if ever

Nah, its ouir future.

Most professional services and such will be gig work soon. Automation takes over where it can and we get put on a govt stipend, doing contract/gig work.

I dont care about gig jobs going away. Those "contractor" positions are generally for people who are too lazy to shite, shower and shave and get a real job with a real schedule.
