Ignoring the fact that this article (and I'm assuming the book it's based on) seems to just make repeated assertions as to the degree of "bullshit" work in the economy and then backs it up with mostly anecdotes, my real question is: what is he actually advocating for. So should we destroy all of these "bullshit" jobs? Who decides which ones need to go? Somehow I feel like the people complaining loudest about all the "bullshit" jobs would be the first ones rioting and breaking windows if those jobs were to disappear from our economy. I guess this is where someone throws out the term UBI and glosses over the details to assure us that jobs are no longer necessary in the post capitalist utopia we have found ourselves in. (don't the UBI arguments always focus on the fact that people will still choose to work though?) I wonder why Spain, Portugal and Greece haven't realized that their problems are imaginary yet and started handing everyone a UBI.
