When the tesla Optimus robot comes out and scales up, it will replace lots of unskilled labor.

I go into the store and most of the cashiers have been replaced with scanners, robots are stocking shelves, mopping floors. Taxi's are becoming self-driven. Where are the people going to get a job? What are the retired going to live on? On 10/7/24 18:02, Ken Hohhof wrote: Liberal and conservative are kind of meaningless terms. Progressive and Reactionary are probably the more accurate political terms. Reactionary may sound pejorative, but if you look up the definition, it’s pretty dead on. In the context of Robert’s post, conservative is indeed the right term, since the wealthy wants to maintain the status quo. But what you hear all the time these days is take things back to some prior time when things are thought to have been better. That’s reactionary. I mean, the red caps don’t say Keep America Great.

Especially on the abortion issue. I am apathetic towards politics as they are all the same, just different colors. Barbell curve, I love it. Some could say the bathtub curve. I recently watched the series on Netflix about Vince McMahon. I realized I was watching current American Politics. I didn’t know that Trump even got in the ring with him at one point and smacked him down. I think Trump has used McMahon as the prototype for his TV/political career. The dems play the heel pretty well. But they are never quite popular enough to be the baby face.
