🧵4️⃣ But here’s where it gets global.

🔁 This isn’t just a German problem.

The same dynamics—poor work conditions, perverse incentives, aging societies—are hitting many developed economies. Gen Z isn’t lazy; they’re reacting rationally to a system that’s no longer delivering.

The real question: Do we need more work, or better lives?

"Care is a principle, not just a sub-sector of the economy, not something that we wave around to try and claim the moral high ground for, but a principle. And the basis of that principle is restorative."—@ProfTimJackson

@luca @eskensaskia hier liegt ein Denkfehler vor.
#CareEconomy hat ganz unterschiedliche Pfade.Wir haben hier deutlich weniger Vorhersehbarkeit,deutlich komplexere Vernetzung und Outcomes können nicht durch binäre Größen definiert werden.
mMn ist das der Zentralpunkt,wenn es um Carekrise geht.
Wir versuchen soziale Traits in industrielles Korsett zu pressen.

"Care is an anathema to #capitalism. Its virtues are capitalism’s vices. Its rich foundation for meaningful work is capitalism’s ‘productivity crisis’. To the mainstream economist, the time-intensive work of #care translates as low or stagnant productivity. The thing that’s ‘holding us back’ from the growth we are so obsessed with."—

FrontiersAI: UBI Income Portfolio Adjustment to Technological TransformationPositive and normative claims that artificial intelligence (AI) will or should lead to adoption of a universal basic income policy (UBI) remain insufficiently empirically grounded to merit serious consideration. Long-term trends in individual/familial income portfolio adjustment (IPA) to business, economic, and technological change (BETC) point to continued incremental changes in the ways that individuals/families achieve life goals, not a fundamental structural break necessitating radical policy changes that may not be desirable in any event. Moreover, if AI proves a more rapid disruptor than anticipated, UBI-like payments can be made quickly, as recent bailouts and fiscal stimuli demonstrate.
