As well as buying household supplies, dish soap, laundry soap, cleaning supplies, personal hygiene products, clothing, and so on, how will stores such as Dollar Stores and WalMart survive, they also employ locals and rely on lower income workers to make money?
To fill the gap, one of the guys said the government would have to implement UBI universal basic income
That means people staying at home, doing nothing, making babies, and staying dependent on the government. How is that a solution? Please help me understand how that’s good.
The guy in one of the videos i post suggest that, it’s not a solution and doesn’t help
EDIT: We must ask ourselves has UBI kept people from working in other countries, not saying it will work here and it may keep people from working, but how do you stop a future crisis?
You can’t. Well, the people who can won’t, more specifically. They prefer to make money on the way down, then pass the problem on to someone else once the problem explodes. It doesn’t really affect them at all. They don’t live there, so why would they care?
The people who care are not in power. The people who actually care are busy in less powerful organizations trying to help.
What’s worse is that Open AI is woke biased. Many of the woketards believe in the death of all humanity. They emotionally disturbed individuals. I’m afraid that the future looks more like mad max than Star Trek .
@dushimes - you’re a bright lad - i think with your reference elsewhere to 'UBI as well, perhaps it is time to consider “WHAT IS MONEY ?” - a couple of books here which may refine you outlook on our particular gambling chip !
The funny part is that everything the US and England has done, both good and bad, allows us to enjoy the freedoms and comforts that we have. When was the last time your neighborhood lost electricity because of the rain? In some countries, they lose power every time it rains. It’s a normal thing.
The life we live is amazing. Yes, our countries have done horrible things, but in the the end, would we prefer to be noble and live in the countries that are on the losing end of that deal?
No way.
There is brainwashing that goes on in our countries, keeping people thinking a certain way so they can keep going to work and save their money in the bank.
Yes, leaving your life savings in the bank is a bad idea. In the US we get programmed to do this. But if people didn’t do that, how would they get loans to buy homes or afford university education?
If you had a business and an amazing secretary, I doubt you would suggest financial freedom books to her. You’d prefer to keep her as a secretary because finding her equal would be nearly impossible. Depriving her of that information is censorship.
My point is that certain structures are in place to keep this modern world rolling. Even though people do bad things for us to have the lives we have, we wouldn’t want to switch places.
However, within that structure we have our economy. Our bubble that others have fought for. Inside the bubble we all try to work together. But using machines to replace people disrupts that economy and displaces too many people.
That’s freakin’ scary. Think about all the information they’ll collect. Then, think about the information they collect, that they don’t tell you about.
OpenAI, which Elon Musk helped to co-found back in 2015, is the San Francisco-based startup that created ChatGPT. The company opened ChatGPT up for public testing in November 2022. In under a week, the artificial intelligence model amassed over a million users, according to OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman.
Generally speaking, I agree with all you said except this part, because information is available to all who seek it, just because I recommend a book to her does not mean she will read it or take action, there’s a reason the person owns the business and she’s a secretary , and does financial freedom mean she’ll quit her job?
I don’t. If I have copies of some ¨be your own boss¨ kind of book in my car, and I’ve been giving copies to friends all week. Do I want to give one to her?
Or if you have real estate, would you give ¨stop renting, and start owning real estate¨ books to your tenants?
There is a type of financial freedom where you still work and make good money, but also do side investments, which are good enough to pay off all your bills, buy a house, buy a car, and take vacations.
In addition, you have financial freedom and do not have to work any more
I’m missing a piece of the puzzle here. Elon Musk is warning people about it, but isn’t one of his companies helping to create it? Isn’t one of his companies the creator of Chat GPT?
Why would he give advisory about something he helped create?
I don’t understand…Can you help me understand this?
