  • If we pushed to fully automate everything that possibly can be automated, there wouldn’t be much work left. Jobs right now are just busywork.

    The news drones on and on about labor shortages, but I’ve never seen a desperate employer. The trades say there’s shortages, but all the trades are flooded with apprentices, and then there’s pre-apprentices flooded in behind them. Office jobs have to sort through hundreds of applications for a single opening. Hell, even low wage jobs have huge labor pools ready to work, but the owners still find a way to nitpick. Things are horrifically upside down.
