All these politicians becoming millionaires while the average middle class American continues to lose

gee i wonder why

So instead of arguing we can fix it. Why do you think the government would never support UBI many of them are funded by giant tech companies.

Off our taxes dude

well theyre funded by us.

I would argue you can even get rid off income tax through Value Added Tax

@lou777 is the average middle class American better off now than they was 10-20 years ago?

Now with people being laid off with the corona virus?

Still are they better off?

Not this instant. But a few months ago yes.

I would hope. It doesn’t change the fact that things will get worst in the future for a lot of middle class Americans

😐

Especially white Americans in rural areas. Coal jobs arent coming back.

Middle class are always worst off to million/billionaires. But they still going to be better off than the last middle class generation

Capitalosm is the best

Americans period are "better off" than the rest of the world. The bottom class of US residents is better off than most of the world. $20k a year puts you in the worldwide "1%".

It’s ok if y’all think things will only get better. I’m fine with the future. I’ll have a job regardless of the outcome.

I just feel bad for all the middle class workers who will lose their job to automation and don’t have any skills or college degrees to get by

Tbh it happens. People need to learn to save and stock up. As sad as that sounds

I would assume many of you also have good jobs. I would assume some of you have college degrees. Maybe I’m doing too much by thinking of others.

the problem isnt automation in itself. the problem we need to avoid is shocking the greater economy with changes it cant adapt to. automation with working class jobs needs to be a slow process.

me too stoopid cuz i have no degree

Thinking of others is great. Giving the government responsibility to care for them is not.

how did i even type this?

@saturn broker I agree 100 percent. The problem is I don’t think tech companies care so much. I guess we’ll just have too see the impact of automation

automation is highly beneficial for humanity

I agree. We need automation

ultimately it will be. but not without some growing pains

But like Saturn was saying. It needs to be gradual.

We’ll see what the future holds

the future will be eventually bright

it's already starting to look good

Once robotics automation ai ml and computers replace humans we will look to interesting things to keep ourselves entertained

we will always find a purpose

I personally think humans don’t change, mentality, corruption, evil, domination, there will always be battles ahead

humans don't change, but we can always change things for the better

What’s better though

Hi

that is entirely on you, what you think is better
