Finland to end basic income trial after two years
Basic income is an admittance that hundreds of millions of people are no longer necessary. Governments and corporations will not pay billions of dollars per year to people who do nothing. It will result in a strange situation where companies like Apple will be giving people money so that they can buy the iPhones they make.<p>Eventually, these people will somehow have to disappear. This means there will also be less demand for the robots to make things. This would then end with a small population with robots occupying the planet.<p>Welfare is essentially a way to kill a human&#x27;s soul. If the choice is to go out slowly like this, then I would say &quot;it is better to die on your feet, then live on your knees&quot;.
