It's a misunderstood concept known as "Universal Basic Income" or "Reverse Tax Credit". It would replace the welfare system and up until this point there hasn't been a need for it but in the future it is the only solution to respond to the lack of jobs due automation.

There's a better explanation I can link if you're interested, more comprehensive than I can explain

Basically our technology has surpassed our collective consciousness and it's been that way since at least 1945. It's the reason we have capitalism, socialism, and communism and none of them can properly work for any sustained period of time. It's the same reason universal basic income can't work.. at the moment :manny:

Automation is the future and it's being held back by various factors, none more important than the current state of the collective consciousness of the world. The same reason we're stuck on fossil fuels and jet propulsion :snoop:

I blame white supremacy for ALL OF THIS.

Here is why I think it's being repressed, and why automation hasn't proliferated (IMO)

  • There isn't enough skilled manpower(yet) to set up a completely automated world.
  • All of the world's resources have been identified, but aren't under regulation by the white elite.
  • The whole continent of Asia(East Asians, East Indians, Southeast Asians) are leading in STEM education and careers, per capita. They are well on their way to beating the West in the automation arms race. The issue is that they don't have ownership of any other resources than their own. This is why China is in Africa.

It's about to get really real!

Look. I get what you're trying to say. But this isn't a perfect world, and this has nothing to do with white supremacy. There's a economic system in place and there's currently a group in place best suited to take advantage. We need to drop the blacks are peace loving, whites are demons bit. The ONLY focus should be education and generational wealth. Everything else is a distraction. Everyone can't win. All white people don't even win. See the welfare statistics.

Even though I gave reasons that solidified his argument in my last post, your post is spot on.

In the end, it's all excuses... gotta put the work in.

You're absolutely wrong about this not being about white supremacy. This "Economic system in place" is a system placed there by whites, to be taken advantage of by White/Western Interest. This shytty education and lack of generational wealth is a result of white supremacy. These behaviors you were JUST complaining about..

Blacks are far behind the curve in this regard. Read the bios of these young people taking over Silicon Valley. Their parents saw the future and had their children learning to code since age 8. Our parents were busy making sure we were flexing on the other kids in elementary school with Kid Jordans.

...are the results of White Supremacy :martin:

To be specific - it's cultural failures and inappropriate behaviors produced by the pressures of extreme and varied forms of "oppression" from white supremacy.

It's 2017. Blacks have mastered the art of content creation via platforms created by whites and their ilk. We generate millions of dollars of increased value for the company founders while pocketing pennies. Although I did just acknowledged their headstart, the information is out there. It's our job to take advantage.

However, you're missing the bigger picture. The people in this subforum WANT to do more.. build more. As a result were information seekers. The people were talking about have no interest in such things. And trying to bring it to their attention results in them saying "that's white people shyt. I'm trying to get on this music, music management, promoting, magazine, side hustle, t-shirt business."

Gotta let that societal pressures nonsense go too man. At what point do we stop blaming "conditioning" and simply accept that in ALL racial enclaves there are going to be low-level thinkers? I'll repeat what I said earlier. Everyone can't win.

And my mother is an educator. I went to school in the hood and to a magnet school in the white part of town. There's nothing wrong with our education system. There's something wrong with our people who don't take advantage of it. Let's stop pretending all our classmates were sitting quietly respecting the teacher day in and day out. It's not like the white man is dropping off textbooks in the hood with a cover and empty pages inside.

I've made my arguments, defended them, and they still stand. No need to continue going back and forth :hubie:

On Topic

To you brehs working on getting certifications and degrees to take advantage of the current and coming wave of technology, I suggest you step your entrepreneur game up at the same time. Find a way to generate some passive income while you're studying to get where you want to be :ehh:

yep, cloud/robotics/automation is about to be the new wave of technology pretty soon..

They are already here....

Can't emphasize that enough. Learning to code should be the new foreign language. When I was coming up they were pushing foreign language in school. But now I think we should all know how to code. That's a skill that sets people apart in the
Job market now. A employee that can code can normally do things more efficiently than one that cannot.

This is horse-shyt and you'd know it if you've ever hired developers/programmers ...these guys drag ass
when it comes to projects that aren't their own

I blame white supremacy for ALL OF THIS.

You can't let white supremacy deter you from what you want.
Forge ahead anyway....

Capitalism works when it's not hindered by government intervention. It's the only thing that works on a large scale. Socialism and communism could potentially work on a small scale with some great mathematicians in the place of management

There's huge political reasons for why alternative energies have been held back there. It's so big, yet so simple, that I don't even want to say because of the interests

I never said, and hopefully didn't imply, that white supremacy should deter you. It's had the opposite effect on me. Replacing white supremacy and empowering black people has become my main source of inspiration. On a personal level it's replaced a lot of my decadent and hedonistic ways but that's still a work in progress :lolbron:

Those other questions are gonna come down to personal preference and goals, but as long you're doing right by black people, i wouldn't knock your hustle. I'd suggest taking a step back from your businesses and hiring management to deal with the day to day. That way, you can compete in the workplace, build experience, and keep a bulk of the money from your businesses at the same time. :win:

That's a generalization. But a wholly true one. Though I would rather have a developer or programmer do something that requires programming to be efficient versus waiting for a MBA to crunch a petabyte of data by brute force.

Meh I'd rather empower myself and those brothers whose goals align with mine.
I'm selfish now so I can be philanthropic in the future...

Lol the questions weren't directed at you originally breh, I already have my masters and sold that business in like 2010
Just wanted to see what others would do in that situation.

Black men have to have to learn how to feed ourselves without going through another race of men who hate us. A lot of brehs think it's not possible but I rather know how and be used to doing it, than not know what to do if Mr Charlie starts laying nikkas off. When cacs start laying guys off, black men are the first ones to go statistically and then brehs have no income until another cac gives them a job, it shouldn't be that way. Brehs gotta figure out legal ways to generate our own income without depending on a white boss
