Thought Experiment...Work that benefits only OTHERS...
If, by doing one unit of work...a neighbor or random OTHER received 10 units of BENEFIT...but you received NONE..

How many units of work would you do, and for how long?

So, for example, by doing one hour of work before your usual daily slog..your neighbor or some random mope would receive 10 hours of pay enabling him to not work at all...would you do it?

If so, for how long.

One condition...you can't pick the recipient and it would have to be someone you neither liked or hated. Neutral.

Thank you.

Your government

No work at all. That's why communism/socialism/UBI will NEVER work.

But why? You give so little and someone else gets so much.

Maybe what goes around comes around?

Why not take a chance?

Because the world isn't Star Trek and we aren't living in a post-scarcity society.

This is the problem with communists/socialists/leftists. They have no comprehension of true human nature and the reality of the world today.

Plus you're asking people to be self-less in a time when people couldn't be more selfish and self-centered. Wake up to reality.

This is the way. Full collapse is the only way healing can begin now.
