@hcaez @sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ @chad What do you think about the near future automation of jobs that will cause unemployment to rise incredibly as human workers become obsolete and expensive compared to robotic workers? Should we impose regulations on the amount of robotic workers companies can hire, or maybe a base income for everyone since the majority of people will be unable to work?
I think it's a perfect opportunity to invest into infrastructure
there's tons of work that needs to be done there, our nation's bridges need a ton of work rn
that’s actually a good point
But the government can’t employ the same amount of people who would be replaced by machines
And if they did the need for infrastructure upgrades would diminish leaving us in the same place we were
hmm I wanna say you underestimate how much work there is to do there, but I don't know the numbers of potentially displaced workers/how much work is needed for infrastructure
at the very least, I offer it as a partial temporary solution
and a way to make our country amazing in a specific way ya dig
Well think about it though, roughly 250M available workers in the US
if the government employed all of them
250M unemployed? is that what's meant by available?
ooooh I love it shadow
No no
Like
That’s just the work force
I don’t know the exact number
oh, the whole work force won't be displaced
Obviously
But the majority will
lots of jobs are safe
By the time machines replace most jobs
The population will have increased as well
you think? where you getting that from. America doesn't have a strong factory presence anymore, and that's who gets automated
I mean I’m also talking globally tho
service and skilled labor isn't gonna go anywhere
oh
yeah that's diff
I think America will get hit by this for sure
but I don't think close to a majority
There’s plenty of jobs that would be effected
