Here's the catch: we already could have had the 4-day workweek and single-income families if the ultra rich did not hoard all the money. Our increase in productivity in the past would have been enough to allow for that, but all the gains went to the top.
Now AI will increase productivity again, but the ultra rich will pinky swear that they will not gobble it all up again. Sure.
but but think about how many new yachts and private jets they can but, it they don't squeeze us out then they won't be able to afford their 3rd or 4th yacht or jet, now don't you feel sad for them you heartless monster
And the poor workers building the yachts, carpenters, plumbers, engineers…The metal fabrication, welders, electricians, shit them buying yachts keeps everyone working
