Imagine if you were to travel deep in to the Amazon and locate an indigenous tribe. This tribe is still a hunter gatherer society. What do you think would happen if you introduced just a little bit of modernization. Simple things like agriculture and irrigation. Sanitary water systems. Basic things that we take for granted. One possible outcome is that the now obsolete hunter class amongst the tribe would revolt. The sudden loss of their jobs would leave them with no purpose, so why wouldn't they revolt? Another possible outcome is that they would find a new purpose and help push their tribe in to the future. In a lot of ways, we're facing the same shift today. We need less labor to make "things" than we ever have in the past. Resenting the loss of this need is only one solution. If we look back over human history, we know that the lost of labor requirements for the current status of living has only resulted in an elevation of the tasks we set ourselves to. That is our choice, and that is why I'm so excited to see people like Elon Musk set themselves against tasks that others cower in fear of. I'm glad for people like Paul Graham who are looking for ways to make entrepreneurship available to more people. I'm thankful for people like James Cameron, who use their wealth to explore parts of the earth for the benefit of all. I'm not saying it will be easy, but I don't see the wall that you're seeing.
