- thelastgallon 1y agoYes! Everyone forgets about the super cheap power in US and so many people complaining how their electricity bills are going to zero!
- MisterTea 1y agoI wonder what the people in China will be doing then.
- jqpabc123 1y agoTroubleshooting robots, developing super intelligence, working to further economic hegemony over western countries. I wonder what the people in the USA will be doing then? Still waiting for tariff payments from China?
- MisterTea 1y agoSo all 1.4+ billion people will be employed doing all that work. Riiiiight...
- jqpabc123 1y agoOf course not. There will always be service jobs. But they will likely have lots of people on some form of Universal Basic Income --- which they will pay for using money sucked out of western economies. Where will the USA get this kind of money from? Borrowing/credit? https://www.the-sun.com/topic/universal-basic-income/ https://www.the-sun.com/topic/universal-basic-income/ It's a sad thing to say but to see the future, look to China, not the USA.
