Ultimately I think the basic income will not be necessary at some point but that is down the road. There is going to be a period where the basic income is required to get to the point we are discussing. That is why I got involved in the manna project myself.....I see there will be a time, perhaps a decade or more, where a bridge is required..

And yes we are moving towards the attention economy. This is what is going to be rewarded...people will be paid for where they focus their time and attention.

Many are still holding onto the old paradigm.
