RE: Equality – Drop in the Ocean Fiction – Choices
That's certainly an interesting thought and idea. By and large, there are certain people who are just outright greedy and will look to take advantage of whatever system is there for their own gain; conversely, there are also some people who are just outright lazy and would love for other people to take care of them.
Very Marxian idea, with the big difference that there are now robots and automation to do the work and, presumably, own the wealth to redistribute. Hmmmm.
It's interesting you mention the greedy and the lazy. Many of the greediest people in the world exploit the lazy the loafers and the worthless, (aka "taking care of them"), to further enrich themselves, especially if they land a sweet political office gig.
Yes, very true! We have absolutely all types of interesting folk in this world. Maybe our robotic overlords won't be such a bad thing!
