I laugh every time AI robotics and tec. are blaimed for job shortages ..
There are tens of thousands of things that need doing that robots cannot do .
Reforestation, stream restoration, dig up all the old fuel tanks in the world ....on and on ... It goes
The only thing we need to do is adjust the monitary system to recognize these things as profitable and they are... And include funding for these thing in the magic money machines.
Yeah - but who wants to work in the forest & breathe fresh air when you can slave away over a fryer at McD's ??? :D
Lmao ok got me there ..
The problem is that all people throughout the world have been trained to believe that others have to provide them employment their whole life. This gives rise to a few people providing jobs that eventually get filled by automatons instead of organic people. The reason the people are being replaced is that they unionize, which drives the price of manufactured goods up, in order to sustain business overhead. If the worker regarded their job as the initial investment in building their own business, then whether they are replaced by a machine or not they've got a plan that will grow the economy instead of imploding it like we've seen over the last 50 years of unionization. People will be the business builders, in the future. Machines will be their labor. It's the trend. This will lead to greater freedom and prosperity and any government willing to steal from the job maker to compensate the unemployed should be put convicted of robbery and sentence passed as a citizen. If someone wants to take out a loan to start a business or go to venture capitalist for the money that is fine, but the right to private property must be held inviolate, or the economy will collapse. The producer must be able to benefit from the work of their hands other wise we end up with economic diaster.
I bet that Jimmy Hoffa & Al Capone would have disagreed with you. ;)
