UBI = Slavery

[Anonymous No.22797727]

Ok guys I'm kind of thinking that if UBI gets distributed in an amount that makes it so no one ever has to worry about money that nation will fall.

I keep hearing arguments that with the expansion of automation and tech that there will be so few jobs that people will need UBI to survive. I get this point but the question is why the fuck would anyone go into those professions?

If I had the option to get let's say 40k a year and do nothing or 150k and work my ass off why would I or anyone choose the ladder? My assumption is that less and less people would go into those professions or keep working and the system would collapse and we'll be back at square one. If it doesn't then we essentially have a well paid slave class that provides for us.

Idk I get the concept and it sounds nice but it just won't work. It just feels like communism lite.

The thing is it actually would work in an ideal high trust white ethnostate. If all of the available jobs were meaningful work making progress in science, technology, and medicine, and I knew my work was benefiting my people who would appreciate it instead of taking it and spitting in my face, I would happily work instead of doing nothing. And if the lowest people in that society were just autistic white NEETs who wanted to play vidya until they die, I wouldn’t mind supporting their simple lifestyles with my taxes either. In this dystopian hell we live in, none of the high paying work is meaningful and the people who my tax dollars go to are monstrous niggers that shit out 10 more niggers to get more welfare and degrade society in an endless spiral

“Socialism is a scare word they have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called farm price supports.

Socialism is what they called bank deposit insurance.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

When the Republican candidate inscribes the slogan ‘Down With Socialism’ on the banner of his ‘great crusade,’ that is really not what he means at all.

What he really means is, ‘Down with Progress — down with Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal,’ and ‘down with Harry Truman’s Fair Deal.’ That is what he means”

UBI is better than the plethora of all useless social programs we already have. UBI should replace welfare, if you're going to give welfare might as well give it to everyone.

You assume people want to be neets and see it as a better life. Most people can't cope with not being a slave. They enjoy working for Mr. Goldberg, it gives a purpose to these empty automatons. They are the people that reason with emotion. The weak handed "investors". They even go as far as saying being a wagie is honourable and that they "contribute to society". They think pushing papers and running a cake shop makes them useful. Do you think about why people got split into essential and non-essential? Most jobs are useless yet stressful.

Mother fucker I put Homebrew on all my game consoles. Homebrew devs don't work their assess off for $300k salaries, they do it for the challenge, clout, and fun of it. I personally script a lot of shit myself for fun. This may be an alien concept for some of you, but challenging yourself is actually pretty entertaining. It's just most of the shitty dead end desk jobs filled with pointless tasks zap the motivation and energy from everyone. Sure most people are still going to do nothing, but guess what? Most people literally contribute nothing in the grand scheme of things anyway, so it really has no fucking difference on the end result. Everyone at my office can have their jobs easily automated away, literally nobody is needed. I myself have automated huge portions of their jobs for them, and I don't get extra compensation for that shit. I just wanna prove it can be done, and don't like seeing blatantly inefficient tasks be done over and over.

There's lots of people who will work whether or not they need to, but I think people in this thread are underestimating the number of people who do shitty jobs because they have to. Who is going to wagecuck at McDonalds for 25k on top of their 40k UBI? Clean toilets? A huge proportion of people with shitty jobs will stop, and those jobs are necessary. So, you say, they will have to offer more money for shitty jobs. Great, on top of money printed from nothing to pay people to do nothing, even more money will be dumped on people doing low paying jobs, all of which results in inflation. Which then reduces the purchasing power of UBI, necessitating an increase, which results in more inflation. It's sad that everyone thinks inflation is a meme these days, but the only reason that is the case is because all of the newly printed money is never handed to the poor. Start giving it to the poor and we WILL be on the path of Venezuela or worse.
