RE: CAPITALISM #2: Why robots will create more jobs then they could ever destroy

in #economics8 years ago (edited)

From the beginning, we should have been content with the resources this earth provides us. There is no need to build robots. Even cars are a waste of time. They cause more deaths than they benefit our ecosystem. Yes, human beings wants to reach the moon with their innovations, but we fail to recognize that the amount of money going into these curiosity driven projects can be feeding hungry people and restoring devastated cities.

Sort:  

That brings us to the question, what life is all about. Are we consider ourself as an animal, that should live with nature in harmony and don't destroys it. That would be a living like some tribes in the Amazonas still have. Without advanced technology in small groups. Or do we see ourself as Faustian beings, that try to figure out, why we are here. We are looking for the answer in religion, science and technology. And some try to escape death and are promoting the Singularity therefor. In my opinion we can't leave the path of technology. We are already to many. But we should use it careful. Try not to destroy our living space. Thanks for your comment, @benjiberigan
