I'm not a week-end alcoholic but I might like a drink or 3 without having to drive or pay for Uber to go into the city.
Eventually it won't just be 'unskilled labor'. Many white collar jobs will also be replaced in the future.[/quote]
People either tend to forget that, or fail to believe it.
There are some of us on the board who have been talking about this for a while now. It's interesting how most people believe they're safe from automation; that it's only the low skilled jobs that will be exiting the job market, when in reality, machine learning and AI are going to make a large number of professions, from many fields in medicine to law to white collar business professions, obsolete. And sooner than most believe.
Unskilled labor will soon be totally automated. This is just reality. this is why college is so important, but some on the right are still stuck in the 60's.
Fine, going forward you are correct.
But what about the guy who is now 50 or 55 and it's too late and too expensive to go to college.
BTW that isn't me, but I'm just posing a question.
What are all of these people supposed to do?

Basic income. It's going to become a necessity going forward.

That is me, I'm hoping to get another 15 years and I'm done but I'm not sure that is going to happen.
Awesome, the wife and I currently make over mid six figures, hopefully that basic income covers that !
Nope, sorry. You get scraps with the rest of the rabble. This is as far as your Privilege gets you! JAMS on the other hand has a career that is immune to all this so he will be scoffing at you condescendingly from his gated community. The one that has it's own exclusive driverless vehicle ride sharing program.
