An essay presenting a eutopia set in 2050 in which the production gains brought about by automation have led to a universal basic income which allows the recipient to live however they choose. A man and his family are used to illustrate the positive effects in living, health care, education, which is focused on individual talents and activities that help the community as a whole.
