"This is most certainly history is the making because what we decide today will make the world our future generations will live in. While universal basic income will help ease some pressure from job loss it may not be sufficient. To fund UBI taxes will likely increase and there is only so much tax increase that is practical. A complementary mechanism that offers alternate career paths and helps develop resilient communities could help bridge such a gap. We need structural changes to the current economic systems. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2023959850992959910"
