Comment Too many people, not enough jobs? (Score 1) 870
Automation is threatening lots of low skilled jobs.
Every industry has some "fluff" in my opinion, things that are needed, but that happen to make money. Example, Inuit fighting tax code simplification so people will want to buy their software.
Is the elephant in the room that there are too many people to give quality jobs too, or any job? That productivity is so high that it isn't necessary to have everyone working to give everyone what they need?
Is the current paradign out of date?
If very few people have jobs, then there are less people to buy things, keep other people employed and give profits to owners.
