Too Many Jobs Feel Meaningless Because They Are
- dccoolgai 8y agoKinda cool for HN - wasn't HN one of the places where that original esssay on BS jobs (i think it was the same guy?) Found purchase? Sometimes I feel bad about HN but other times I feel like it's the only place where some of the most important things get discussed at large.
- nobody271 8y agoSo is the U.S. really even a mixed economy? Every channel to make money is locked down by regulations. Why compete if you can create legislation to block competition? Just throw up a wall of insurance liabilities, financial and property requirements, and enough minutiae to sap the energy of any potential competitors. Meanwhile if you are on the fortunate side of all this what incentive is there to innovate or even stay modern? It seems like a recipe for disaster.
