Vote on a basic income
Do you heard about the concept basic income? The basic income is unconditionally granted to all individuals. The concept isn't really new. There were some experiments in the USA and in Canada in the 1970th. I think the discussion has got more attention since it is obvious that robots and AI will compete with the workers and clerks for the jobs. The basic income could buy time to find solutions for the labor market changes. The issue basic income is complex and there are many opinons all around. I can recommend these TEDs (you can find all TEDs on YouTube).
- What if we were free to work? | Olivier Schneller
- What will future jobs look like | Andrew McAfee
- A BIG idea, a bot idea – How smart policy will advance tech | Albert Wenger
The Swiss can vote on a basic income in June 2016. But only one party supports the referendum, therefore it hasn't any chance. Canada and Finnland are going to perform experiments in 2016. I share the opinion of some experts who think the first nation with a basic income will be the USA.

I think it's idealistic, too much of the population would depend on those who are productive, especially with a larger elderly population each year.
