A.I. aside, we should get 4 day work weeks regardless.

Bernie always has terrible solutions to his valid criticisms of oligarchism. It should be illegal to work 5 days? Or more hours no matter the pay?

UBI is only empowering of people solution to US empire/oligarchism. Work as much as you want, with the power to say fuck you if conditions are not good enough for you. Cheer on AI/Robot productivity gains as it increases your UBI.

There's still too much work to be done.

How early do you guys think we were with the introduction of AI? I’d guess 5 years, at least.

As a non American can I say, does bernie ever actually propose plans or ideas or does he just go around shitting on bad ones?

Edit: why am I getting downvoted as an outside observer asking a question. It’s concerning that Americans have this NEED to be part of a cult. The right has Trump and many on the left have Bernie. If you dare to question Bernie even a little, or simply ask an unbiased question, and you get piled on.

He says a lot and want some progressive social stuff but his main function is sheepdog to keep the left in the horriblyright democratic party.
He tows the Uniparty imperialist warmongering line every time and only proposes good bills or votes for them when it's absolutely certain they wont pass anyway.
He's a snake, and so is his astroturfed "waitress" successor AOC by the way.
Now Bernie is past his date and more people finally get what he does.
