Presumably in order to afford to pay it out, the state will have to take it in first. And the state takes money in by taking money from us, doesn't it?

So we pay more tax and then the state gives it back to us.

Which ****ing genius thought this one up?

I think it's show to actually make the state more efficient, thus ensuring that less tax needs to be taken to administrate the whole business.

Think of it as a sort of universal credit system that actually works and doesnt lead to us having to write of billions of pounds every year due to ministerial incompetence.

The bad kind. The scrounging, welfare dependent kind. The Jack Monroe kind.

:music: "If no-one worked / they wouldn't get paid / to buy the things / the robots made" :music:

Though I have to say, a robot might be able to do your job, mate, but not mine. ;-)

we all get given a robot we can send out to work imo ? then stay home and masturbate..and your job has no need for a robot to do as some injun can do it cheaper than a robot :) ..robots will have to be good at bull****ting before i can get on this gravy train i fear
