What kind of moron thinks anyone is going to offer some kind of grand scale service for no profit or reward? What kind of fairytale world do these people live in?

The profit will be ensuring virtually nobody will ever be able to rise and take away what the super wealthy have.

That image is so sickening. It's like they needed to depict some future world where you can just go to the store without money and choose from their abundant stocks of awesome shampoo.

Living at home on UBI checks will last just long enough for people to become uncompetitive in the skilled labor market. Then it will be like in any other dictatorship where everybody works hard as hell doing menial jobs for barely enough to scrape by.

lol only one paragraph at the bottom is where it says oh having no privacy is kind of annoying. But the rest of the “glorious” side gets full descriptive paragraphs. Lol Forbes is gay

They only mention the pluses (of which there are many), but never the minuses (which are far greater). For one, complete submissiveness to service provider (probably a small oligarchy of them). Not knowing how to live any other way. Having yourself profiled so you can be manipulated etc.

This community will love this part:

My biggest concern is all the people who do not live in our city. Those we lost on the way. Those who decided that it became too much, all this technology. Those who felt obsolete and useless when robots and AI took over big parts of our jobs. Those who got upset with the political system and turned against it. They live different kind of lives outside of the city. Some have formed little self-supplying communities. Others just stayed in the empty and abandoned houses in small 19th century villages.

All in all, it is a good life. Much better than the path we were on, where it became so clear that we could not continue with the same model of growth. We had all these terrible things happening: lifestyle diseases, climate change, the refugee crisis, environmental degradation, completely congested cities, water pollution, air pollution, social unrest and unemployment...

Lol, who helped create these problems so they could sell the solution?

Feral beasts own nothing, have no privacy and are happy.

Had you saw the wild animals in Congo?

Yes you will be like them.

Kill or be killed as they call it.
