With automation, robots and artificial intelligence, entire industries will become obsolete and unemployment will increase massively. UBI will become inevitable in one form or another. Universal credit won't be nearly enough for the displaced middle classes.

Good book for you Bebo: Talking to Robots: A brief guide to our human-robot futures. 
 

Studies at Oxford reckon around 35% of jobs will be replaced by automated robotics by 2030.

You can just hear the shouts and arguements of "why should some millionaire living in Rubislaw get the same UBI as me".

Perhaps an opt out option would also be considered for people where the cash could go to a charity instead.

Either way it's not going to happen for a while so we better get used to the system we have unfortunately.

 

The system we currently have is outdated and getting increasingly ridiculous. Millions of people's livelihoods are predicated on an economy that's not robust enough to withstand 3 months of closure due to a worldwide pandemic. The economy is largely a gamble and its success or failure is predicated on those in the bottom class spending money to circulate upwards, we're fed a myth of trickle down economics to keep us servile. 
 

With global warming and extreme weather conditions set to rise during the next millennia, how can we say the system will work when it doesn't account for natural causes? So much of capitalism is rooted in oil as well, we needed renewable energy yesterday, and we won't get it for a few decades yet. Yet you've still got cunts drilling for fossil fuels to turn over disgusting profits. 
 

It's broken, it stopped working ages ago, and I think more and more people are starting to realise this. There isn't infinite economic mobility for most of the worlds population. It's a myth.

Lots of good points above. 
 

Capitalism should be adjusted to fuel innovation that benefits society and is rewarded by profit. Not an elite reaping vast profits to the detriment of society.

Maybe we don’t need a large universal income but a universal right to water, power, food and shelter. Probably a mix.

In the next 5-10 years a significant percentage of the population will be economical unviable in the work force.

The right to decent housing, water and food is a must. 
 

Over 216,000 empty houses in England, which is more than the estimated homeless population. It's nonsensical. 
 

Edit to add: 

We could've had that adjustment in December 2019. Everyone turned their nose up at it and voted in the elites anyway.

Surely we hate on the content of their character, not the colour of their skin?

My "moral compass", whatever the fuck that is may be different to yours. I'm just asking YOU what YOU meant when YOU said scumbags? I understand if you don't want to elaborate. 

got to hate skin colour.
