Exactly. A UBI would be cheaper for the elites than dealing with widespread violent chaos. There’s some famous quote that says something like people are only 3 missed meals away from violence.

Great predictions about Optimus and Starship. Those are the tech advances I’m most excited about (besides Helion).

That’s a pretty good breakdown. I’m hoping the elites implement a UBI to prevent societal collapse. It would be a lot easier than managing a self sufficient bunker and defending against endless waves of kill bots.

Yes and half of people are below the median and half are above. You just defined one cherry picked statistics related word. That means nothing.

Reply to Government Scientists ‘Approaching What is Required for Fusion’ in Breakthrough Energy Research by Gari_305
These NIF experiments are a dead end. I think either commonwealth fusion or helion will be the first to demonstrate net energy gain with fusion.

One of the few things the elites fear is widespread violence breaking out. If it becomes apparent that 50% of the population may miss a few meals and start tearing everything down, they may be willing to start a UBI. Maybe. We’ll see.

I hope they choose a UBI instead of a more deadly pandemic.
