>it increases the amount of wealth you can create with the same amount of labour, The end result of this is that there are fewer jobs. There is a certain amount of "production" (for lack of a better word) needed to maintain the same quality of life. As production becomes more efficient, it takes less and less labor for the same output. This inevitably reduces the amount of jobs available. Knowledge work can't fill the gap, partially because most people just aren't capable, and partially because it takes an order of magnitude fewer knowledge workers than manual laborers for a given amount of output. >What, then, do we do with the world's stupid people? The answer is that we're going to have to change our attitudes towards "redistribution of wealth" for society not to fall apart.
