Automation

One out of four people whose labor is not necessary to the economy. More if you factor in unnecessary schooling years. One out of four people with no legitimate secure revenue. That's the ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM that everyone is conveniently forgetting to mention. The economy is thriving with only 60 to 70% participation. And that should be a good thing, if we used our productive efficiency properly instead of this devil take the hindmost celebrate our best people by having them live like perverts in filthy luxury while children suffer, even though they have access to second hand tvs and refrigerators."
