What do you think? Good idea or bad?
Personally, I feel that as technologies advance, more and more people should be freed from working. And we should have more and more of our needs met simply by virtue of being human. The wealth that is generated through the advancement of technology should be more equally shared among all humans, it shouldn't be concentrated in the hands of a few capitalists and mega-billionaires.
That said, I feel that people shouldn't get money, because this could cause inflation. Instead, I think governments should start purchasing agricultural lands, farm them to produce food, and then give said food to all the citizens. This would be one good way to start implementing something similar to universal basic income.
Your thoughts?
Why you so lazy?
Human society builds culture. Culture is for humans what's nature for animals. Each era requires different skillsets and adaptations. By making success selection easier, you make that society weaker by picking up after losers. Most successful empires and civilizations were destroyed by the so called decadency also equivalent to easying of selection rules. Then inferior skillsets could breed unconditionally and bring demise.
I see the current western society at its cleanup phase, right now. Ironically, women are the ones who drive that process forward. They strive for the 20% successful men while disregarding the bittom 80% until it is too late. That way only superior genes carry on and the population is being reduced to healthy levels longterm
