    But that would require some mechanism for redistributing wealth and taking care if those who choose not to work, and everyone knows that’s communism.

      So much this. The way headlines like this frame the situation is so ass-backwards it makes my brain hurt. In any sane world, we’d be celebrating the automation of mundane tasks as freeing up time and resources to improve our health, happiness, and quality of life instead of wringing our hands about lost livelihoods.

      The correct framing is that the money and profits generated by those mundane tasks are still realized, it’s just that they are no longer going to workers, but funneled straight to the top. People need to get mad as hell not at the tech, but at those who are leveraging that tech to specifically to deny them opportunity rather than improving their life.

      I need a beer. 😐

        Workers should be paid royalties for their contributions. If “the top” is able to reap the rewards indefinitely, so should the folks who built the systems.

        I think you misspelled “taxes,” but its possible your spelling will turn out to be more accurate.

          Well… the difference is the former has a history of actually working.
