  17. The entire American capitalist system is predicated on the idea that workers don't have the freedom to just leave their jobs, no matter how bad the conditions. This is maintained by a careful system of salary collusion, artificial means of keeping wages stagnant and low (using H1B's and outsourcing, among other methods), and union busting.

    A guaranteed income is a guarantee that your workers will no longer have to take whatever shit you sling at them.

  23. Re: Seems obvious on NASA Feed 'Goes Down As Horseshoe UFO Appears On ISS Live Cam' (mirror.co.uk) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Do you really believe that in 100 billion visible galaxies there isn't one speck of life?

    Oh, there is life out there. You can bet on it. But the UFO nutters aren't just saying "there is life out there," they're saying something VERY different, namely:

    1) That this life is intelligent enough to have perfected interstellar travel
    2) That it is exists coincidentally with us
    3) That it feels the need to come to this backward shithole and probe our redneck's asses.

    Yes, it's pretty arrogant to think that we're the only life in the universe. But it's even more arrogant to think that a species so incredibly advanced as to have developed a way to travel across the almost unimaginably vast distances of interstellar space would give a flying fuck about a primitive species that only recent developed simple chemical rockets.

    We wouldn't probably wouldn't even qualify as a child's ant farm to a species that advanced.
