RE: Modern-day slaves - Are we slaves of God or slaves of his Creatures?

This is why ultimately I think we will see a Universal Basic Income. AI and automation is making a lot of labor unnecessary. If we continue to tie the right to live to having a job, a lot of people will go hungry. When people go hungry, revolutions happen.

Thats true. But everywhere you find people who support the revolution and others who reject it for their own benefits.

Right now it's easy to reject while it's still possible to put food on the table and pretend you're a temporarily embarassed millionaire. It's a lot harder when that's no longer true.
