Lasty Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 but this Andrew Yang guy is making sense. His willingness to not only mention but expound upon the topic of automation is a relief to me... ... >______> anyone remember my zeitgeist keyboard warrior days? Remember that? Grod, I was annoying.
Lasty Posted October 6, 2019 Author Posted October 6, 2019 Seriously? I'm all about preventing self induced mass extinction.

There's enough empty housing for all the homeless in America, but we still have a "homelessness problem." Enough food for everyone here, but people still starve.

RainyDayJizz#35 Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 How much can one man do? One man with no resources in a nation of cattle?

Because no one gives a fuck about maintaining a society. They just want to live in it.
