Re: US Election 2016
back to this robot talk though, it is an extremely valid point
as technology improves, the requirement for manual human labor and work, is drastically reduced. Intelligent planning and programming will limit the amount of employees needed to carry out a job that would normally employ many.
what this is already doing to the economy is creating a massive gap in the pay structure. ANYONE working traditional jobs will see their quality of life reduce as they cannot keep up with the business owners who control this technology implementation.
YES, there will need to be more jobs to upkeep the robots and such, but the time and money they save goes into the pockets of the robots superiors and them only. Normal working people will just chase inflation and it will be a losing race as more money distributes to the clever people who implement the most technology.
regulation will be the only way to control this but its not very possible.
life is already getting too complex for our simple human minds to handle, people are freaking left and right as we try to adapt and keep up with this tech.
I give it another few years before we all blow up |
