What about the fact of Democrats having ZERO POWER in the legislature did you not understand? The Republicans have taken over America lock, stock, and barrel. Legally, there's nothing that can be done to stop them until 2026. By then i

White-collar jobs will still exist in 10 years, and they will continue to exist in 50, 100, and even 500 years. AI is an immensely powerful tool that will boost our productivity more than the industrial and PC revolutions did. However, peop
