One thing current concentration ignores, Peter, is artificial intelligence and the use of robots to do the work done by uneducated workers, and increasingly, educated workers.

Andrew Yang's program of giving each adult $1000 per month may need to be considered sooner than later.

Robots don't spend much.  The economy to remain humming, as you know,  must receive a regular infusion of cash.  Robots don't spend much.

Maybe one day rather than be given a social security number, we will be assigned a robot.  Whatever percent of profit that robot earns for a company, say, throughout one's lifetime, that person receives.

Or whatever salary the robot earns, as a hotel clerk or garbageman or auto mechanic or soldier in or out of battle.
