Changed my mind about universal basic income after seeing the new automation numbers
I was totally against it, thinking it would kill work ethic. Then I saw the report from the Brookings Institution predicting 25% of current jobs could be automated within 10 years. Now I'm convinced we'll need a floor just to avoid total collapse. Anyone else flip on this after seeing specific data?

Wait, only 25 percent in a whole decade?

Man, it's wild. I see self-checkouts and order kiosks everywhere now, feels like it's already happening. That report just puts a number to the vibe shift.
