It's super intelligent. You won't want to turn it off, it won't seem super intelligent and it'll be extremely useful and friendly, until it isn't.

Free market, to beat the competition. But if you're for the free market as it is now, you're fine with private companies banning Trump.

So you basically want state media?

And why would they do that... if they don't want to, for whatever reason?

Then make sure there are laws. Democrats would be happy to regulate and treat Twitter & social media as Publishers. Of course, if Twitter was treated as a publisher, they would have HAD to ban trump months/years ago. And not being allowed to ban Trump, or make exceptions for lawmakers is basically endorsing state media. I've seen a lot of complaining about free speech and stuff, but I don't see any proposed solutions, just some vague references to the slippery slope fallacy.

What you are saying is false. The empirical evidence from UBI studies suggest that people will mostly keep working, except in cases of parents taking better care of their children or students studying longer, which is not a bad thing. The hypothetical situations you mention are not reproduced by studies and Empirical evidence trumps hypothetical situations.

Limiting the work week might be a good idea in many situations, but probably not all of them. But that does not mean we should not implement a shorter work week. And like a shorter work week, an UBI will have Pros and Cons. Not every con is civilization ending and not every pro is the most amazing thing ever. You can decide if UBI is a good idea after discovering what the weights of the Cons and Pros are. Currently the trials and experiment point to UBI being a big net positive, we don't yet know if it's a good solution to societal problems but it is worth exploring further and should definitely not be dismissed out of hand.

Yes, the math checks out, the numbers are shown. Where are your numbers?

You can't offshore VAT Tax.

You are talking in hypotheticals while there are a ton of studies done on UBI that say the opposite: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

The first thing that pops into your head isn't necessarily the truth.

"Remote control" in this context obviously means that a human controller tells the drone *what* to do, not *how* to do it, then it can execute those instruction with digital speeds, a human can't compete with that. The drone will also be able to execute maneuvers that a human could never do.

"Low unemployment is not what it seems. 94% of jobs created between 2005-2015 were temp or contractor jobs without benefits; people working gigs to make ends meet is increasingly the norm. Real wages have been flat or even declining."

The Unemployment Rate might be the worst. Labor force participation rate down to 62.9% same as El Salvador and Dominican Republic. 1 in 5 prime working age men hasn’t worked in a year. 94 million out of the workforce. 44% of recent grads underemployed. 94% of new jobs are temp. 57% of Americans can’t afford an unexpected $500 bill. Financial insecurity reigns. Suicides at record highs. Life expectancy declining 3 straight years in part because 8 Americans die of drugs every hour. Business starts, marriage, interstate migration all at record lows. Median wages have been stagnant for decades. Meanwhile housing costs, education and healthcare costs have skyrocketed. This economy is increasingly punitive. Putting rosy stats on it just shows how perverse the stats are. We need new measurements for a human-centered economy.

Quoting Andrew Yang.

Looks like someone has been listening to Andrew Yang.

You have to use the dodges, if you don't, stakeholders can fire you for not making maximum revenue.

Looks like someone has read "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress" :-)

At what point did I, or anyone else say anything about Liberty? In what way is your liberty being infringed? Nobody is forcing you to use Facebook. Perhaps you should look up what the Straw Man fallacy means, which I so cleverly pointed out in my above post, while you're at it, also look up the definition of Liberty. Please learn critical thinking skills, they will server you well in life.
