    I answered #1 already, MMT. I can tell you don't have a decent grasp of how fiat works. You should look into that. How do you think the US was able to "generate" a bazillion dollars for covid and ukraine? 2. Of course people are free to have as many children as they want. In fact I am going to assume that will be encouraged. We are already...

    Bill Gates why stop at a billion? You could retire on a lot less than a billion. Devon Booker just signed $145m over 2 years. Even after taxes he could retire and never have to work again while living a life of extreme luxury. If he plays his cards right and doesn't frivolously blow away his fortune, his family will be wealthy elites for...

    Here's the thing I dont disagree that he was bad in 2007. Im just adding perspective, my personal opinion is Pop watched that game 5 vs Detroit and said screw that, not happening to us. He bet on Lebrons streaky shooting not holding up and it worked. They showed him several players whenever he got the ball, sometimes a wall. Those guys didn't have...

    You still haven't answered ANY of my questions. 1. WHERE and HOW is the government going to generate this money if only a small portion of the populace is working and contributing? 2. What is your policy towards starting a family? Are people free to have as many children as they want? 3. What is your immigration policy? How many...

    A big leap is coming soon when Amazon is able to layoff all of it's drivers for self-driving. That is tens of thousands of employed people that are already low income and will immediately need assistance. That is probably right around the corner.

    It will sustain. The "slave" debate is just semantics. Everyone working today is still very much reliant on the Gov and the US Dollar though. Removing work doesn't make us entrust in the Gov anymore than we do today. Most people are slaving away with the illusion of the "American Dream" and it is a great motivator and it isn't going away any...

    Sorry but I don't equate work with slavery. I'm sorry that you do. Maybe you're entitled and spoiled and you should have been raised better. Every time a child is born, that is another mouth to feed. Are you going to put a cap on how many children people are allowed to have? What about immigration? How many new immigrants would you let in each...

    Lebron is the only player in history to shoot 35% with 6 TO's per game in a series - it's the worst chucking and turnovers that the game has ever seen.. Then he repeated this in 2008 with 35% and 5 TO's against the Celtics, which caused loss in a winnable, 7-game series.. Meanwhile, 22-year old Kobe and Amare dominated the Spurs with goat stats in...

    Generates and creates are the same thing, and no the Gov will not decide your worth. You are still free to get rich on your own. UBI just insures that everyone can feed and house themselves without working. Because work is going to become more and more scarce, thanks to technology. Slave is what you are now. Where you have to - well slave - to...

    Not speaking for that poster, but I don't think mentioning LeBron's production and putrid efficiency is equivalent to "winning the finals". LeBron gets credit for his series against Detroit (Larry Hughes was a complete no show in that series), so he should still get flack for his poor finals play. Kobe at the same age got dragged (and still does)...

    Right, so the government: - Creates the money - Generates the money - Decides what every person is worth Congrats, you're a slave. You have an awful lot of faith and trust in government, and you seem awfully willing to put your entire well being and quality of life into their hands.

    It will come from "modern monetary theory". Look into it. As AI starts to slowly remove jobs, which is already happening, it will get to where our unemployment gets too high and we realize there is just not enough work for everyone to do something and things are only going to get worse. That is when UBI will be implemented. It will come from the...

    From a monetary standpoint, things are going to get weird eventually. UBI will only hold up so long. When we get to a point where farmers are no longer needed and our food source is completely automated, it will eventually just be free. Everything will be. Solar powered, self upkeep. No humans required. Money will no longer be needed. It will...

    This is moot because you're still going to need food and shelter. The "bare necessities" as you put it. Those things cost money to provide and maintain. If nobody is working and there is no tax revenue, where is this money coming from?

    Slight advantage in man defense is an all defense selection. Thats not slight at all, thats being one of the top defenders in the league for a season. Klay has had 16 30 point games in his playoff career, one 40 point game. Jeff has 6 30 point games in his playoff career. Cmon man this is getting more ridiculous by the second. Winning spotlight my...

    Lebron was trash in 07 finals. If he played well but still lost, then he'd have some leeway. But he was ULTRA dog doodoo. Lebron is my guy but I can't stand the way people mythologize the 07 run. It was a pre-prime Lebron who played well before the finals and had a legendary game 5 against the Pistons...but the comp was objectively poor and...

    It has everything to do with it. Larry Hughes isnt some all time legend but he was Lebron's 2nd option. Find me a team that won a title without ots 2nd option. Find me a team that was able to win with the 2nd option at 13ppg in the finals. You have to go all the way back to Dream's 94 Rockets and fun fact another team that had such weak support...

    You are imagining a Star Trek world with no money and replicators for any food you wish - although ironically, Star Trek didn't have robots doing the work. I can see governments taxing robots, autonomous devices/cars, etc. But how much can one tax companies so that it is still worthwhile for them to continue to operate and advance technology. ...

    The mainstream media owned by you know who, they try to hide that from most of the public. Don't watch mainstream news outlets, look for independent sources. The Mossad have a lot of dirt on Trump. He's been the most pro Israel POTUS ever, and that's saying something...wonder why.

    We are at the doorstep of an era where humans no longer need to "contribute". The end game will have AI do all of our thinking and robots doing all of our hard labor. While humans essentially do nothing but tweak the AI to our liking. This is a process that will take decades, and you will likely not live to see the outcome but just the transition....

    How does that work? In order for the government to be able to hand out money, they need to generate money first. Where are they getting all this money from if only a small portion of the population is working and generating tax revenue? Also I'm curious, what exactly are you contributing to the system if you're not working and just collecting...

    All of this is the basis for Elon's "American Party". A party that is finally for the people. As he has supposedly been slapped in the face with everything you just said. However I doubt it actually does anything now that Elon is universally hated by both the left and the right and painted himself a Nazi Clown.

    That is inflation you are talking about. They have to keep that in check, yes. I mean, they are more or less doing it now. Our tax dollars are not spent, it is just money they remove from circulation to keep inflation in check. When our Gov needs money? They do not wait to collect it all in taxes first. They just draw a bill, print it up and...
