How do you view a future society in the US and the world? Isn't technology eating away at necessity of labor

Question

as we have known the worthiness of a deserved wage in the past? Don't we need a new idea about what a responsible citizen is that would include a learning and volunteer process that becomes the norm and a society provided for by our government in this country?

Answer 1

Machines will control the future and no longer humans.

Answer 2

It's Money that determines this trend. If you made product A with manual labor and another country makes the same product with little or no labor or cheap sweatshop wages, you'll be out of business in no time and yaddayaddayadda.

But I get your point. As if you could talk volunteer processes and ethical responsibility to people who are interested only in Money. More's the pity.

Answer 3

Corporations will produce goods with a minimal amount of human labor. People will own stock in the corporations. The government will not need to provide for the citizenry. It will be corporate ownership that produces the wealth for the vast majority of people. We already see this phenomenom occuring. Most working people already have money invested in the stock market through their company retirement plans. There are plans to give Americans the option of investing some of their Social Security themselves instead of giving it all to the government. The government is moving towards divesting itself of providing for the elderly, and having their investments in corporations provide for them instead. This is the future, where the corporations are owned by the people and wealth is distributed among everyone, not by the government, but by investing in the world economy. People will continue to work, but to what extent and in what endeavors it is difficult to predict.

Answer 4

consider that the overwhelming number of humans alive today do not live in an environment of i-pods and the quest for entertainment. daily life is a genuine struggle for existence. if you care to consider the best current observable test case for the evolving systems that will be "the world", study India. a relatively small, prosperous upper class and a vast majority of poverty stricken wretches. the most modern technology and a century old infrastructure. myopic religious sects, women treated as property, an elitist caste system, India has it all.

Answer 5

Socialism
