So computers replacing you at your job is a good thing?:upsetfavre:

I work for myself and the services and products I own and I sell can't be automated unless I do it for myself.

A lot of this is just fear mongering imo.

If you replace peoples jobs you have to move towards some type of socialist society where no one works or you will eventually no longer have a cohesive society.

Pretty much. I just don't see how a Country that already is making higher education more and more expensive each year is going to retrain the workforce to accommodate the jobs lost. We're going to a socialist government no doubt. Democracy would fail in this circumstance

Not going to happen people said this about tractors and many other things.
Real talk. The only thing holding back American farmers is the government. Technology will never replace a experienced farmer

The biggest issue, especially locally, is competition that's essentially eliminated and rising costs to keep the status quo. The middle class guy gets screwed.

People will just have to switch up their skill sets. A world full of technology is a world full of shyt that break, needs support, and needs security from hackers. The amount of higher-paying jobs will increase, lower-paying jobs will definitely decrease.

Low skilled workers need to start thinking relocation because you are going to be replaced.

It's not a matter of IF, but WHEN
