In other words: the incompetent are increasingly discriminated against. Maybe they should be protected by law? ;)
- mc32 11y agoYou jest, but it's worth considering. I mean, if productivity is uneven among contributors and contributions ate now measurable and poor contributors are numerous and can be identified and taken out of the workforce, we could end up with perennially a jobless class of people. What do we do with them, do we distribute their load across employers (as we do now, for the most part) or do we allow discrimination but make up for this by allowing them income vouchers, knowing under this scenario they'd be hard pressed to hold a job, or do we fabricate work suitable for them?
