This morning I watched a video featuring Jordan PetersonHi @drdave
which touched upon how people with a Lower IQ are increasingly incapable of working in a high tech society. As it is many jobs today are not particularly meaningful (folding letters to fit into envelopes!!!). As technology advances, more and more jobs will be lost ... creeping up the IQ ladder ... Conceivably it could reach a stage where only people with the top 16 percent will be able to find work. There is also a job bias against older workers. Alternatively the new technology will reduce the need for higher skilled workers. Within a few years distributed manufacturing will allow cars to be printed and assembled like lego.
UBI acts as a cushion for any class or IQ level.
Judging from what we see in american politics - there will always be jobs for even the lowest IQ person... All they have to do is spout off some pre recorded nonsense they know will gain a following - next thing you know, president of the US... I digress... UBI directly joined with a specific crypto has more merit the more I think about it - i'm gona put my 60 IQ into it for a while and get back to you... Steem on brother... ;)
