- SketchySeaBeast 3y agoThe work week hasn't shrunk at all, and many goods and services are cheaper but housing isn't and many people live paycheck to paycheck. I have my reservations that THIS revolution will be the one that solves our problems. A jump in technology is simply a way for those with the means to get more out of those without. AI isn't an equalizer, compute seems like it'll be the new valuable resource and you can buy that with cash.
- SoftTalker 3y agoMany people have always lived paycheck to paycheck. Maybe part of it is that people are bidding up rents because everything else is relatively cheap?

- gumballindie 3y agoYes but pay has gone down in real terms and people afford less of what’s important - owning a home, raising a family. We do indeed have more of the stuff we dont need, or want.
