will the price be high... or low

depends what supply and demand has it at

no, there is none of that. There is one road, one toll, x amount of people use it daily. it is not fluctuating, it is a road in a population-stable location

what will happen to the tolls on that road?

will they magically be low?

the "supply" is 1: one road lol. The demand is x amount of people a day. It doesn't change, because it is a road.

the toll will be extremely high, because they know they can, because people need this road

I mere there’s 2 bridges but 1 only has a 2 lane road to get to it lol

So when they do work on the main one

You’re fucked

And it’s like every summer btw

mkay so there's some competition there, we can easily imagine a scenario though where just one road/bridge exists to get somewhere

Unless the same company buys both bridges

yeah then you're still boned

>like the government owning both xD

oof haha, the question is do we want the government having the monopoly, or private institutions

one of those is more efficient but wants to get as much money from you as possible

one of those is less efficient but profit isn't a concept

@Colonel Sanders™

you said the rise of automation eliminates jobs right

I believed the same thing a few years ago

but it really doesn't

if you look back in time, industrial revolution for example, people were saying jobs would be gone and that a lot of people would be unemployed and people would be doing nothing

exactly how people say it now, but look what happened

That’s different though

People still needed to work the machines

In the scenario I’m talking automation removes the majority of jobs

Like high majority

people will still be needed to make the make the machines, check if theyre working properly, repair them

yes

Obviously

But in the IR the machines were run by people

It was probably 10 people to a machine but now

It would be 1 to 100
