nothing will survive the rise of automation
the only people will be the rich of the rich
Not with socialism
Socialism is no different
It is very different
How would socialism defeat the rise of automation
Completely opposite
if I start a company in a socialist world with robots as workers
what would happen
Ok I have to stop using socialism
Ive heard the theory on why socialism would survive
continue
You can use socialism
Government controlled economy then
I know what you mean
its easier to put it into one word
The government owns all of the companies
So it redistributes wealth
As the cost of products gets closer to 0, everyone can live with abundance
So the government receives the means of production?
Thats fascism lmao
Ok then Im a fascist
Theres nothing inherently wrong with fascism on the surface
But it doesnt end well
for that to happen you have to live in a world without greed
People are greedy and theres no changing that
I mean it would be democratic, so hopefully, the people would control the means of production
in a socialist or fascist world someone would take control
Well if the people own the means of production itll still end the same way
One person starts a business with full automation
then they proceed to fuck everyone else
They rise to power or prop up someone who will
there will be an alliance and bam
ends the same
The government can use automation
The government isnt an incorruptible entity
The government is made up of people
all it takes is one bad egg with a little more power to take the whole thing down
Let's say
In an automated world
