The construction industry is one of America's most fundamental components of GDP and potentially one of the most significant source of 'unemployables' as workers are displaced. Robot automation of jobs is expanding quickly.
The Technocrat push for UBI is mainly to address the displacement of workers due to the technology created by those same Technocrats. Economically speaking, it is a crackpot idea, but now an exhaustive study has been done by looking at all the failed experiments.
Technocracy has teeth when you don't agree with its phony science. Big Pharma has driven this vaccine hysteria from day one, turning it into a belief system devoid of facts. In 2015, Al Gore proposed to "punish climate-change deniers".
Surveillance is always for some other benefit like "training the AI program" but once your data is recorded, stored, transcribed and analyzed, it can and will eventually be used against you.
Technocracy and Communism have some surface commonalities. For instance, they both manifest collectivism and both are autocratic as far as subjects are concerned. Technocracy is far worse, however, because it will result in a dystopian Scientific Dictatorship from which there is no escape.
Technocrats are in hot pursuit of lighting up the Internet of Things by implementing 5G world-wide. This desire far outweighs any human health risks that are demonstratedly present. To the Technocrat mind, human life has little value.
TN has warned that China intends to aggressively export its draconian social control system. It has found an unlikely sale in Australia, which is as unlikely as the U.S. to follow China's lead toward Technocracy. China is marketing in the U.S. as well.
Technocracy's dream is to perfect the global supply chain by streamlining infrastructure. Sec'y. of Transportation Elaine Chao's father James sits on the board of directors of China State Shipbuilding Corporation and her sister Angela is a board member of Bank of China.
Even though the NSA itself has scrapped a large part of its phone spying/data collection operation because of abysmal usefulness, the Trump Admin is seeking to make its authority to collect the data permanent.
TN has long claimed that city councils have the ultimate stopping power for intrusive technology. Pressure is also building in San Francisco to ban facial recognition. Loss of anonymity is the biggest concern.
