Numbers don't lie

I'm scared that, in the very near future, the unemployment rate will reach 50%. Where will we all live? There won't be enough places in the homeless shelters for everyone. Who will be giving away tents for free?

A little vague, can I guess? Climate change + AI + robotics = the rise of what Yuval Noah Harari calls the useless class.

Numbers lie all the time. Especially when you pull them out of your ass!
But yes, shits getting (more) shitty for lots of folks.

Be happy. There's a bazillion things to worry about. Stop worrying. It's not good for you.

Some form of universal basic income is coming, it has to. Could be a good thing.
more likely close to 90%

it may seem like a stretch but there are very few essential jobs(no organization needs a marketing consultant, administrative vice dean or procurement manager etc) Meaningful jobs are going to be the highly prized ones in our grandchildren's lifetime. The rest of us are going to be on a basic income and the majority of our housing/clothing/food needs will be automated.
