Unconditional Basic Income as an Answer to Automation

Communism.

I’m not saying that basic income is the same thing, just that it didn’t take people very long to take advantage of it and is generally considered a bad idea. I know Norway has some form of Basic Income, but I don’t think it would work at all in the US. There is really no way you can convert capitalism into giving people free money. We can’t even figure out healthcare.
