        They should all learn to code. Oh, wait. (Also: AI is going to eat up a lot of basic software jobs, too).https://twitter.com/jselingo/status/806463474989670401 …

        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.

        Haven't read. I agree, driving will be safer. Not so sure destroying tens of million men's employment of last resort will be.

        Only out-of-context. It's meant to say people aren't just looking for minimal income. Hard to avoid being misquoted on Twitter.

        Basic income allows much more risk taking in starting own businesses, attempting job transitions, etc.

        .@DeusExJuice It's in a thread. Misquoters are misquoting on purpose. I wish twitter had more control over being quoted; attach thread etc.

        I'm for a stronger safety net; but there is a lot of necessary, meaningful and greatly underpaid work.
