If that day ever comes then perhaps a BI might be helpful. It'll certainly be cheap. Right now the problem we have is too little labor, not too much.

- Turing_Machine 10y agoEvidence? 95 million adult Americans are currently out of work. That doesn't sound like "too little" to me. What you really mean is "too few willing to do scut work for a pittance". That's an entirely different thing. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS15000000 https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS15000000
- yummyfajitas 10y agoYou realize that your number includes children, the disabled and retirees, right? It's not an entirely different thing that people are refusing work because they prefer the laziness that government programs enable. That's the whole point. BI only makes this problem worse.
- Turing_Machine 10y agoThe only "children" on that chart are those 16 and up (i.e., old enough to quit school and go to work). While there have been increases in retirees in recent years, that's not nearly enough to account for the spike on that chart.
