The notion that everywhere will be a world only of the elite owners of production and those on the dole is not reassuring. I doubt those who poo-poo the Guaranteed Income will be changed by these "love" jobs.

Yes, evidently. As just one example: before SS & Medicare the elderly were very likely to live in poverty and have poor healthcare, Christian charity notwithstanding.
