there's tons of work that needs to be done there, our nation's bridges need a ton of work rn

2019-01-27 20:13:56 UTC  

that’s actually a good point

2019-01-27 20:14:12 UTC  

But the government can’t employ the same amount of people who would be replaced by machines

2019-01-27 20:14:39 UTC  

And if they did the need for infrastructure upgrades would diminish leaving us in the same place we were

2019-01-27 20:15:28 UTC  

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

2019-01-27 20:15:38 UTC  

at the very least, I offer it as a partial temporary solution

2019-01-27 20:15:53 UTC  

and a way to make our country amazing in a specific way ya dig

2019-01-27 20:16:08 UTC  

Well think about it though, roughly 250M available workers in the US

2019-01-27 20:16:15 UTC  

if the government employed all of them

2019-01-27 20:16:28 UTC  

We should take 25% of our military budget then put it into infrastructure programs

2019-01-27 20:16:31 UTC  

250M unemployed? is that what's meant by available?

2019-01-27 20:16:36 UTC  

ooooh I love it shadow

2019-01-27 20:16:37 UTC  

No no

2019-01-27 20:16:42 UTC  

Like

2019-01-27 20:16:47 UTC  

That’s just the work force

2019-01-27 20:16:53 UTC  

I don’t know the exact number

2019-01-27 20:16:58 UTC  

oh, the whole work force won't be displaced

2019-01-27 20:17:04 UTC  

Obviously

2019-01-27 20:17:08 UTC  

But the majority will

2019-01-27 20:17:08 UTC  

lots of jobs are safe

2019-01-27 20:17:15 UTC  

By the time machines replace most jobs

2019-01-27 20:17:23 UTC  

The population will have increased as well

2019-01-27 20:17:31 UTC  

you think? where you getting that from. America doesn't have a strong factory presence anymore, and that's who gets automated

2019-01-27 20:17:46 UTC  

I mean I’m also talking globally tho

2019-01-27 20:17:48 UTC  

service and skilled labor isn't gonna go anywhere

2019-01-27 20:17:49 UTC  

oh

2019-01-27 20:17:52 UTC  

yeah that's diff

2019-01-27 20:17:58 UTC  

I think America will get hit by this for sure

2019-01-27 20:18:03 UTC  

but I don't think close to a majority

2019-01-27 20:18:09 UTC  

There’s plenty of jobs that would be effected

2019-01-27 20:18:16 UTC  

for sure!

2019-01-27 20:18:31 UTC  

it's an issue, to which i present the possibility of infrastructure work here in America

2019-01-27 20:18:49 UTC  

But you still run into the same problem we have today

2019-01-27 20:18:58 UTC  

How would the government pay em

2019-01-27 20:18:59 UTC  

once the infrastructure work runs out?

2019-01-27 20:19:04 UTC  

And that

2019-01-27 20:19:07 UTC  

well, that's another issue

2019-01-27 20:19:18 UTC  

because we can get into marginal tax debates haha

2019-01-27 20:19:22 UTC  

which is an entirely other subject

2019-01-27 20:19:23 UTC  

Yea

2019-01-27 20:19:31 UTC  

but I think a high tax rate for millionaires could pay for it
