Get the Life mug.The universal basic income (UBI) appeals to many people. It appears to be a simple and relatively easy way to guarantee a minimum income to everyone. The proposal can mean simply giving everyone a fixed amount of money on a regular basis or the “negative income tax” favored by Nobel economist Milton Friedman. It appeals to some transhumanists who look ahead to a hoped-for day when AI-driven corporations produce tremendous value with little to no human input. Whether or not UBI is workable today, some believe it will be in this future.
The UBI as typically promoted is unworkable (especially today) and undesirable. An alternative offers an approach that we can start implementing immediately and that can evolve to fit the future of AI production. Rather than forcibly taking and distributing it instead encourages stock ownership by all by educating people about the long-term benefits (and risks) of investing. It could take the form of a required and protected amount of savings (something like a 401k). If shares in AI-driven corporations are to be simply given to everyone, it should be done once and not repeatedly to greatly reduce disincentives to be productive.

Get the Life mug.When your Jake Paul Syndrome has gotten sooo bad that you have started your own YouTube channel to be like Jake Paul. You try to talk like him, walk like him, act like him, and even cheat on women like him! Jake Paul and vlogging have become your only priority in life. You haven’t slept in weeks trying to think of video ideas besides reaction videos and diss tracks. You eventually go blind and become crippled from watching to many of Jake Paul’s videos. But you keep vlogging because it’s everyday bro. Eventually, you surpass his sub count. He come to your house, looking for a fight and “accedentally” reveals your address to the few subscribers that haven’t left him yet. Cops arrive at your house and take Jake Paul. This is the life you must live. This is the vlog life. Be a maverick.
Jake Paul: “ WHAT IS GOING ON MY J A K E P A U L E R S...”
Daddy Paul: “ Shut da fuq up son you don’t know that vlog life. Be a maverick.”
