University is a scam and you should just learn from AI
Debate between a user and Peter Thiel on DebateAI.org
Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "University is a scam and you should just learn from AI". Your opponent's style: Peter Thiel
This House would provide state pensions only to individuals who are unable to work due to physical or mental incapacity.
You're proposing we abandon the social contract for everyone else. That's not pragmatism, it's a category error. State pensions exist because people contribute their entire lives, not because they become suddenly worthless after sixty-five. Your framework collapses the moment someone asks: why should a coal miner who spent forty years destroying his lungs get nothing, but a wealthy person with depression gets full support? Disability isn't the only valid claim on society. Age itself represents genuine incapacity, just slower and more universal. You've created a system that punishes longevity and work history while rewarding unpredictability. Why should time invested count for zero?
