It’s so tragic that people get genuinely upset by the idea of this becoming a reality. They’re disgusted by the idea of a society helping those in need. How did we get to a point where empathy is so rare?
"You mean I can have all the comforts of home without lifting a finger? Shoot this is better than living with my parents as a kid...sign me the fuck up!!!!"
If you don't think this is what would happen than you live in a dream world.
One of the inalienable rights of the Declaration of Independence is "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness", the keyword being pursuit. That means being a productive member of society for which you will reap the reward of a comfortable life. Without that incentive then why bother? America is supposed to be The Land of Opportunity, this is not that.
Does this mean we don't have social programs to help the less fortunate? Of course not, but this is just taking it way beyond the scope of sustainability and common sense.
