I don't mean to be a huge dick and rain on your parade, but part of the reason we are moving toward automation at such an incredible rate is because a large part of the world's, you know planet Terra, the third rock from the son, is over 65 years old.
Many of our skilled trades are occupied by people well north of 50. So, the younger generation is going to have mammoth skills gaps and the bots will help fill some of the holes.
Quoting: TheAccidentalJedi So you believe that if there were more kids in Gen Y stepping up to the plate, there would be no need for the Robots and therefore the rest of my machinations are moot?
Bullshit. They started the robotics move in the 1960's when there were plenty of skilled tradesmen... Guess what those human tradesmen did?
They wanted more SHIT, more cars, more energy or they would go on strike.. The very thing they are moving heaven and earth to avoid right now...
The elites cannot survive without an army of slaves to keep all the shit running and moving forward....
In all reality there are approximately 7.125 billion people on planet earth. Of that number less than a billion live in 1st world or near 1st world conditions..
Of those 1 billion I would venture to guess less than 100 million are actually working in any meaningful way. And of that 100 million probably less than a few million are actually working jobs that do something OTHER THAN SERVICE OTHER EATERS...
We are the house slaves in the 1st world. Doing the higher level work and are given perks to keep the field slaves in line.
The 6 billion other humans on the planet are field slaves and are doing the shit work the 1st world slaves won't do..
They are already on the way out or are ALREADY THERE as witnessed by 10's of thousands of factories closing all over east Asia.. They will never re-open.....
