I'm pretty upper-class, lots of assets, vehicles, etc. I get paid really well for what I consider really easy work. yet still, I think capitalism is a disgrace.

Just as science is corrosive to religion, I believe deep intelligence is corrosive to capitalism.

The world is extremely inefficient and people are extremely amazing, the idea that we couldn't help one another to make sure we all are able to do our best in our own best ways seems obvious.

'From those with ability to those with need' sounds terrible until you start to think in terms of abundance and endless potential creativity.

Automation is making work less and less important to survival, one day it will be impossible to justify NOT giving out resources for free.

Transport of information is RAPIDLY approaching zero cost, along with it comes education and many others.

I think those who can't imagine and deeply envision others are okay with selfishness/capitalism where as those that realize we are all brothers think the commies we're probably right (even if they didn't execute all too well)

Poorness is an engineered state, lack of access to money is how we kill the (perceived) less-desirable parts of society.

Animals require over 10x plant food to make the name number of calories. (yet most people largely eat meat)

Food abundance has been real for a long time (most of the earths land surface is already farms), contraction of central credit rates (the main purpose of central banks) is an artificial colar meant to prevent growth and keep the masses in check.

Germany removed such limits that promptly managed to take over ALL of Europe, (similar story in japan) only the combined slave masses of the rest of the world (and some german a bomb tech) managed to (sadly) stop them.

Unscrupulous string-pullers want to drag out and enjoy the unfolding of technology for as long as possible (look at how many golf coarses there are in your local city on google maps).

UBI would just force them to rely on manufactured bacteria / viruses and poisonous food additives (salt, oil, sugar etc) even more that they currently do.

Everything should already be free, UBI is entirely missing the point. Money is a reflection of power and exploitation, as usual in any of the infestation related bottlenecks the only real answer is to 'spread to another area', Hopefully cheap reusable rockets will help with that.

Cheers.
