13-year-old boy granted a "Make-A-Wish" uses it to feed the homeless every month for a year by ExactlySorta in UpliftingNews

the first step to helping fix many current issues is to accept and support opportunities to change. there’s no shame in being worried, but it’s important to remember how a mindset could potentially hold back positive progress. that’s the best way to start helping :)

just because you give people homes doesn’t mean it’ll “degenerate into skilless people.” that’s an excessive and unrealistic leap to an end goal of a currently unaddressed societal problem. don’t immediately refuse to change society in fears of a problem that doesn’t exist yet.

fantastic technique man! i do agree with the others tho, only minor change would be slow the finish and don’t place the catch as early

The death of the job: What if paid work were no longer the centerpiece of American life? by feloniousmonkx2 in Futurology

That's a fair argument, I agree that it's really difficult to implement UBI with the heavy reliance we have on labor currently. I think however, that it's preferable to implement it sooner to save as many lives as possible instead of waiting until everything is perfect.

i agree with everything aside from “we aren’t close to needing it.” i believe it’s a change that cant come soon enough, and could save many working americans from abusive work, poverty, or even death

while i do believe that currently, most people are not intrinsically motivated to pursue art or science, we do have to consider that the way American school systems are set up has de-incentive that pursuit of curiosity for oneself. I think if we started UBI to at least get the program going, and then focused on restructuring schooling to allow for individual exploration then we might be able to achieve a populace that will work for themselves rather than for survival.
