It's easy to imagine a scene when self-driving trucks have multiple compartments and they pull up to your house, send you a notification on your phone and you run outside to pick up your package. Perhaps we're talking 10 years max

I've heard Portugal could be favourable for personal income tax if you are a remote worker, can anyone comment on that? If i'm thinking about "semi" retiring I'd like somewhere with cheap tax, sun and good hospitals

That's a fairly large assumption. Students need 24 years of education to get to Phd level before they reach the state of the art and push things forward. If we lived longer with augmented brain power we would have more experts in fie

That's not a libertarian response, it's a capitalist response, the way capitalism is supposed to be. We don't (read shouldnt) protect anyone, we only should step into a free market where we see monopoly.
