Automation will cause a tsunami of job destruction in the US over the next 10 to 15 years, not only blue-collar but white collar too. The amount of human devastation this will cause, on top of what is already a society riddled with despair, leads me to support Yang’s UBI proposal

But is it enough?

I will have to become educated on Yang's UBI proposal. I think it is time we start thinking about, jobs, work, Any and All occupations ... differently ...
Replying to @marwilliamson
And your plan, if elected, to thwart this?
Replying to @marwilliamson
UBI is a good idea.. demand creates jobs. Yet, how we define work and a jobs guarantee needs to be explored. Many advocates of #MMT such as Stephanie Kelton, Warren Mosler, Etc. Have addressed the pro's and cons of each and lean towards jobs guarantee.

A woman of faith understands the crucifixion as well as the resurrection. Understands the slavery in Egypt as well as deliverance to the promised land. Understands what fear will do and how only love will overcome it. Understands the difference between transcendence and denial.
