    Sure, automation without basic income implementation policies may lead to cataclysmic wealth imbalances, but those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw strawberries.

      Step 1: Feed the rich with fancy vertically farmed strawberries till they’re fat and juicy

      Step 2: eat the rich.

      It’s a simple plan. It’s a good plan.

      There is already a shortage of people to pick fruit iirc. Its back breaking work and exactly the right thing to be automating. Be a plumber or spark, thats for sure what id be training as if i had my time again.

      Don’t worry, the anarchists and anti-whatever folk will bring bricks with them to throw.
