Translation, the government should force someone else to work for my benefit.

Wall-e wasn't a dystopian future for him...it's a symbol of hope and what could be.

The fatman's dream. Never work, get free money to buy food.

There should be a regulation for payment and job assistance if you were laid off because your job was given to a robot.

I wonder what it would do with all that extra free time. Probably exercise.
Haha, just kidding.

I'm all for bashing hambeasts but this is a topic highly discussed in politics right now in some parts of Europe and already tested in Finland with very positive results. It's a very complex topic so I won't go into this here, but when you research it you'll see that there are reasons why we might need that at some point in the future and it's really not as absurde as it sounds when you hear it for the first time.

It's fucking retarded and anyone who supports it doesn't understand the slightest thing about economy or human nature. What happens when an ever growing portion of society are useless parasites who have never worked, never will work, know no one that works and their great-grandfather was the last person in their family with a job?

I'll tell you exactly what happens, you get a steadily growing underclass of literally useless people who has one singular political issue. Increase the size of the base income and blame the oppressive "worker elitists" for everything wrong in their life. Modern society alone is not sustainable, with the US alone having trillions of unfounded liabilities. And this system would certainly not be.

Here's my thing- I'm a huge advocate for this in the abstract, assuming we were in an area with humans who by and large aren't fucking useless. I feel the same way about single payer healthcare. I think it's a standard everyone should have. However, having 2/3 of my country comprised of fat fucking leeches, I don't think any of those would be practical. I could see it working somewhere like Finland or Norway or something though for sure. I just don't trust Hammericans with anything nice.
