Guess I should have quoted the OP...

We are headed for a catastrophe when automatic cars are perfected to the point where there's no more cabbies, Uber, or truck drivers. Deliveries of pizza, flowers, etc will be made by drones and robots in self-driving cars. We're going to need a universal basic income before the end of my lifetime. There won't be enough jobs for people.

Thing is, there will be WORK for people, but these jobs will be more for those who are receiving payments so as for them to have "Something" to do...

$1200 a month rent? That's a tad high for a 1 bd room...You can get one for $650 in LV...$950 in Palm Springs (I was surprised)
