      Even the most far-out answer—minimal "basic income"—is nowhere near a solution. Will just free up people's time to gather up the pitchforks.

      Almost everyone born in 1940s made more than their parents. Born in the 80s? Only 50%. Midwestern states? Norm is to make less than parents.pic.twitter.com/Y249i0eGlx

      And the problem isn't lack of growth. GDP growth is doing fine. It's inequality. Gains are going to the well-off. Very straightforward.

      Here's the article. If we went back to pre-1970 level of inequality, the problem goes away. That's it. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/08/opinion/the-american-dream-quantified-at-last.html …pic.twitter.com/SUn1eyIU65

      Expectation that people will be content with a small UBI stipend & no work while a segment accumulates wealth? Nope.https://twitter.com/AWorthierClock/status/806967898543628288 …

      or… to be creative? Why would people necessarily reach for pitchforks? Lack of upward mobility? Lack of meaningful work?

      I support a good safety net. But you can't replace meaning, structure & schedule with a small UBI stipend—unless importing humans from Mars.

      If you had work (much shorter hours)+decent pay+less inequality, that can emerge. Good work & pay—not small pay-off.https://twitter.com/meelar/status/806973025702866944 …

      But those things don't need to come from paid employment ethr. Why not from things like volunteer work, arts, socializing, etc?

      Lucky for us, there is a lot of meaningful work that is underdone. Taking care of people, infrastructure, etc.https://twitter.com/jdaggar/status/806974414705328130 …

      Aye. Like I said, no short term fix. Keeping most of humanity mired in busywork because of induced work ethic is bleak though.

      The idea that everyone will just "do art" is optimistic but doomed.

      There is so much that we can do! More classroom teachers! Improved elder-care! More vacations and shorter work-week!
