That would be somewhat OK if people could figure out to vote for taxing companies, high income and wealth.
And the redistribute so nobody goes hungry and all have health care.But as it is, wealth is accumulating more for the top 10% than ever.
All the advantages are given to the rich, the idea of leveling the playing field is passé.Yup. Basically any kind of advancement in technology is instantly an attack on the working class because of our economic system.
Top 10% are useful idiots who get to live the “middle” class life.
Real money is all centralized with the people who actually own these mega corporations.
Let’s say if the rich were taxed fairly, the rest of us could have about twice as much.
Instead we are squabbling over whether the extremely poor should be allowed to have food stamps!?
It’s insane!This didn’t happen over night. Boomers vote for this their entire lives.
Now they get to enjoy the welfare state whole the rest of us eat shit
The problem is lack of welfare, you make it sound like there is too much?
People who destroyed social safety nets are the people who living off welfare.
I am highlighting how clown the system is and boomers benefited from screwing everyone over.
We have people working for money with no health insurance living worse off than people who don’t work.
This is unsustainable
Top 0.1%
Yes those are extreme, but basically it’s all above 10%, but you are absolutely right about the top 0.1%, it shouldn’t even be possible to be that rich.
Its literally 8 people that own half the worlds wealth
Wages is hopeful thinking. They want to eliminate your job completely.
If you eliminate enough jobs and increase unemployment, wages go down across the board. But then you also do away with high wages for highly technical roles
Yes, corporate is pleased that they will save so much money by eliminating human employees from the process. Of course, this means they are eliminating customers as well but that’s tomorrow’s problem it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that today the line goes up.
The powers that are driving this are actually planning 20, 30 years ahead. Market solutions is a cover for class war. Trump is cashing checks written by Bush, Obama, etc.,
The “line go up” meme is prevalent because the attitude is a flimsy cover for deeper relations and actual class conspiracy
So is offshoring and immigration, and these are way bigger than AI.
In fact most of the job losses since AI clown show started has been form off shoring professional jobs to idea.
Plot twist: they’re the same.
“Machines were the weapon used to quell the revolt of specialized labor” – Karl Marx
Devaluing human labour, in a labour economy, is a direct attack on the working class. It is, and has always been, class warfare. The working class simply refuse to accept it.
