discussed now? Because there are now fears that we are about to enter into

another period of time when capitalism as an economic system brings us

technical improvements but the by product is unemployment. Long ago if we didn't

have capitalism we would have understood that the way you handle productivity is

if it's more productive let's all work fewer hours. Then we don't divide

ourselves into those who keep the job and those who lose it. Because however

much you may believe that the universal basic income is a decency provided to

poor people, it may well fall short of the kinds of solutions and alternatives

that ought to be part of this discussion and that often aren't.
