0:00YouTuber CGP Grey has created a very sobering video that predicts a not-so-distant future
0:05where robots and other automated systems take away many American workers’ jobs, leaving
0:10the country with an unemployment rate that will make the Great Depression look like the
0:13economic golden years. It’s a problem many of us have seen coming in various degrees,
0:17but the way CGP systematically lays it out in a clean, easily watchable viral video should
0:22help to create a national conversation about a huge problem that we’re about to run face
0:26first into.
0:28One possible solution is the idea of a guaranteed minimum income for all Americans, as explained
0:33by MIT Professor Andrew McAfee in a TED Talk.
