That's why I had to modify my former strict libertarian views and why
right wingers need to modify their total opposition to any form of
welfare when AI destroys the link between human toil and wealth
production that has existed since the species evolved. Any other
position is just not tenable because billions of unemployed and
unemployable people are going to refuse to starve to death without
making a fuss.
Of course part of that link was already broken by the industrial
revolution, which greatly reduced the manual labor that went into food
production, clothing, transportation,... Instead of government welfare
we created middle management and accountants.
