So we should stop all innovation so youth can work at McDonalds to pay for college?
You said no we shouldn't stop progress, then what is your solution?
Continue to innovate, people will find a way to make things work. Don't stop innovation because you want to provide low paying jobs for people.
- HenryBemis 7y agoI do state that we should never halt technological progress. All I was saying is that while progress moves forward, we (as a species) should ensure that we don't just consider the shareholder value of decreasing Payroll costs, but we should also consider that the hell will happen to those thousands/millions. This is not a threat, this is the reality. If we take the food from the table, and exclude them from retraining etc, then at some point they will go hungry and will seek food that is in other tables. This is already happening to a small degree in some countries. Let's make sure it won't happen to a higher degree and in more countries.
