duh
at least
the illegal immigration
Immigration stole over 1 million jobs over 10 years in this country
illegal
immigration
in the next ten years, it will take maybe 1.5 million more
but automation is projected to take **40 million** within that timeframe
nobody addressed that, except yang
automation is expensive
??????
its cheap
thats why they do it
when u raise minimum wage
they will
keeping a machine running is cheaper than paying wage, benefits, insurance
I agree
I don't
raising hte minimum wage will make automation happen faster
Learn to repair and maintain the machines
Ez
then the people will learn a better skill
Truckers are the most common job in 29 states, and 7 million jobs across the country rely on them, diners, hotels, etc. what happens when the self driving truck happens
we all know that technology makes jobs obsolete
it's a hard question to answer
thats why we get new skill
> automation happens when the cost of automating becomes lower than the cost of workers
@Syntak
which is ALWAYS, when technology gets to a certain point
or a skill thats hard to replace
like, if it rains spaghetti and meatballs
do I eat the spaghetti or meatballs first
What do the old phone operators do for work nowadays
if someone rather picks being a cash register as a full time job
So the 'learn to code' argument doesn't really work, what happens when truck drivers are 50 years old, what just pay for college and start a new career?

why should it be everyone elses problem they cant afford basic stuff
We need a UBI supported through a VAT in order to let the people at the bottom actually have a chance at the american dream
@OwOUwU it shouldn't
People should just be able to break a leg and not have to spend the rest of their life in debt, and the taxes that come with that shouldn't have to affect others that much
Doctors should be able to prescribe housing like they do medicine
there are a limited amount of real good jobs out there,
crappy minimum wage jobs are becoming the only option for poor people
