- screye 7y agoI don't see how you brought socialism into any of this. Ironically, socialism is being sold as a solution that you yourself make very clear. That, the pace of scientific progress is really fast ,and automation is going to make a lot of jobs obsolete. Socialism (in the nordic sense, ie. capitalism with social welfare) is being proposed as a solution to rising inequality and unregulated for-profit forces in the free market of industries where the consumer has no choice. (medicine, education)
- iongoatb 7y agoUnbelievable that people believe that the Nordic model of capitalism is "socialism". Capitalism with social welfare is not socialism.
- the_gastropod 7y agoSocialism isn't as narrow a term as you seem to think it is... It's quite a broad concept that can (and does) coexist with Capitalism.
- bentona 7y agoI mostly somewhat agree with you but unless you find a more appealing package for your arguments, you're just going to exacerbate the bifurcation on issues like this, and definitely not convince or enlighten anyone.
