Tax wealth, not work
Tax is a special benefit for being a human.
If AI replaces workers then capitalism is no longer possible. What’s the next step here?

When Capitalism replaced Feudalism, the elites of the Feudal society became the elites of the Capitalistic Society. When mechanization replaced workers, we saw some horrific conditions where the elites made loads of money while workers did work that was long and backbreaking while living in poverty.
So what I would imagine is a load of people working long hours for doing the few things AI and Automation can’t do for a pittance while a small group of tech oligarchs make loads of money.
Seems like we’d need to cull a percentage of the masses to make this work “economically”.
oh don’t worry, “The Invisible hand of the Free Market” will do that for us,
The current tech brings a modest productivity increase when used correctly, but it isn’t really taking anyone’s jobs. Articles like this that support the fraudster’s false claim that it will are part of the problem. No, don’t tax AI, just don’t use taxpayer money to bail these fuckers out when the bubble pops.
No, but the companies using it should.
Companies:
This kind of anthropomorphisation is bad, it shows a lack of understanding of the technology, it’s a terrible idea.
good luck, churches don’t even pay taxes
But they’re charities that are not for profit…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA … AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Seizing the means of production means pretty much exactly this, yes.
No, it shouldn’t. The same way as factory machines don’t pay it.
They kinda do via taxes that are calculated based on the companies inventory value.
I agree. Workers shouldn’t pay taxes, same way as the other machinery.
America was founded on the concept of no taxation without representation.
Good luck with that…
