Let us go back to making things from hand, locally. Let us get rid of colleges and place the burden of training on the employer, apprentices. Let us start growing our food locally, grass fed beef and green houses. Let us retake control of our country and control of our currency. Then have the ability to save outside of the stock market and all of the corruption associated with it to retire in mid life. Let us enjoy what we produce and take pride in our creations again.

Automation frees up man power for other useful tasks that require manual labor. It increases the average standard of living. On the flip side, what lowers everybody's standard of living is inflation, which is primarily caused by people who borrow money at interest, and stimulus packages (bailouts) created by the Government. Less government and less borrowing = happier society. |

Less government and less borrowing = happier society. Maybe we need to slow down a little bit before going fully auto? Maybe we need to get stability of our society first? Guaranteed income sounds a lot like welfare. Who will be regulating this? |
