This is why we can't have nice things.
The really great thing is that I am starting to see signs of 'keep working, stop paying' coming onto the horizon.
Elon says 'high basic income'.
What is higher than not paying?
With the robots you don't even have to do the work.
There will be work to be done.
Work tends to fill the time allowed to it.
But, that can be done by the 20% of us that excels at whatever endeavor is being worked.
You any good assisting in a surgery?
I'm not.
Can you plumb a bathroom?
Not all of us can.
Can you repair your fan when the diode dies?
Not all of us can.
You have to find what it is that you are good at.
Maybe you grow giant tilapia.
Maybe you can get the worms that feed them to breed.
Whatever your particular talent is, find it, and do it.
It's what you were sent here to do, eh?
All while rent is free.
Shoes are free.
Cars are free.
Phones are free.
Food is free.
Electricity is free.
All you have to do is do the thing you love doing.
You don't want to be a bum, do you?
Why, yes you can!
IF you want to be a bum.
I'd suspect that bums will not be easily tolerated.
In fact, in a world of abundance, you will have to work hard at being a bum.
Otherwise, you would be out tying fishing lures so you catch some fish, or whatever floats your boat when you aren't 'Mindlessly melding with the flashylight box.™'
I don't think the bums are likely to be lynched, but shooting them into space for 'science' may be on the list.
They can play all the video games all day.
Coke might come with a limit, though.
Maybe we resupply them, maybe we don't.
Nobody gets forced to do anything they don't want to do.
And, those that try to control others through force and fear are expected to be gunned down by the local adults as they encounter them.
Not many criminals in the wild, wild west.
Are you are tired of paying your masters to bomb children in far away places?
Perhaps it is time you pushed back on that.
A simple way that anybody can do that is to hoard your coins.
The fed buys coins at face value from the mint.
A dollar of change in your pocket is a dollar of value out of the banksters' pockets.
Stop playing in their shell game that allows them to play in the amusement parks from hell and shop in the human grocery stores.
Death to Discord!
Long live Hive Messenger!
Billy Jack, the movie.
The Trial of Billy Jack.
Billy Jack goes to Washington.
