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
We should take 25% of our military budget then put it into infrastructure programs
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
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
for sure!
it's an issue, to which i present the possibility of infrastructure work here in America
But you still run into the same problem we have today
How would the government pay em
once the infrastructure work runs out?
And that
well, that's another issue
because we can get into marginal tax debates haha
which is an entirely other subject
Yea
but I think a high tax rate for millionaires could pay for it
