One of the top posts on a JG I've come across. SRW makes many telling points.
Lack of imagination results in leaders seeing human life as a liability easily disposed of through war. The large imaginations of Bezos and Musk see the need for trillions to fill an infinite universe driven by peaceful purposes.
How to get from here to there? Don’t ask those standing against a a JG or UBI as their stance brands them as lacking imagination.
People standing against a JG lack imagination. OK. But people stand against a UBI because they understand the economics and understand that it is nothing but yet another tool of the wealthy to crush the poor.
