RE: Universal Basic Income and weekly cryptocurrency distribution from MannaBase!

in #manna7 years ago

I think it's an exciting idea, I think between initiatives like this and other ways to incentivize our daily behaviors using cryptos the days of slaving our lives away may be coming to an end.

Yep. As I said in the first post, I think its inevitable. On the one hand, most jobs are on the verge of being automated, making people slave away at them is simply not an option. On the other, from the ancient philosophers to the modern tech kids, most wealth generation comes from the leisure class, from those who can hold ambitions beyond the next bill date. Even if part of the population decides to sit in front of a tv (hell, we can put them to work curating) those finally freed up to go out and build shit and learn shit and experiment with shit will more than compensate.
