I would go even further and say that skill crash is the real and unavoidable problem rather than poverty. Poverty can be curbed by giving out food and shelter which is getting cheaper. But skill migration is not so painless.
- ericd 11y agoYeah, I think we need very extensive federally-funded retraining programs. Just being kept alive by welfare isn't going to give people a sense of purpose - people need to feel useful. But I think a social safety net is very helpful in helping people feel comfortable taking risks - I probably would not have started a company if the cost of failure was homelessness, rather than just swallowing my pride and moving into my parents' basement.
