>'... socialism is, in fact, inevitable.'
how do you respond to this?
I dont need to respond because that's just your shitty opinion, Mr. Soros

Cool! Just be at home, don't engage with anyone, and, stay clear of voting booths
>>130125901
It is inevitable. However we are still at least a good hundreds of year away from that point, so stop trying to force this bullshit into people just because you want to LARP as a Bolshevik.
>>130125901
By smashing evil capitalist robots and handing factories to workers, of course.
>>130125901
There will come a point in technology where there is more people than work. This is a singularity we should both strive for and be prepared for.
>>130125901
how much did you pay for that trip?
>>130125901
I won't hold my breath.
>>130127572
That point has been reached a long time ago. Not due to technology maybe but there are still more people than there is work
>>130125901
So is death but you don't see me claiming that everyone should die.
>>130125901
Then why isn't it here yet?
Obviously piracy is the final redpill.
Offering them a free helicopter ride
>>130125901
So is death.
>>130127816
Yes, but we're still in the phase of hoarding withing the top 20% and a lack of luxury items that remain out of reach for most of the world's population.
Death is also inevitable, doesn't mean we need to rush it.
>>130125901
Socialism (which I assume you think will be like Star Trek) is something nice that we can shoot for, but we'll see about making it work.
Capitalism is what's truly inevitable, because people instinctively want more than their neighbors and are always willing to sell something instead of giving it away.
>>130125901
Not sure why you would believe automation implies socialism (it doesn't).
>>130128330
That will always be the case.
>>130125901
By explaining that automation is only one technology of the future. There are other fields such as genetic manipulation, cybernetics and other human enhancing fields that could make use competitive if not better than high computational intelligence. The only way to fund and motivate these fields is through capital investment.
"socialism" (communism), will not fix our problem of useless humans, in fact it will just make us even more useless than a lot of us are already.
If people loose their jobs it's motivation to improve and do something about it. At the moment many people are stagnate and too content with their lot.
>>130127572
How is that even remotely possible? Labor produces goods, so are you implying that human desire for new and additional goods is suddenly going to end now that decent robotics exist?
Human labor will always have value, because the product of human labor will always have value. So what if robots are better, doesn't stop people from using silver instead of gold, or platinum, or diamond. Resources will ALWAYS be scarce, including labor, no matter how much you create. Our only concern should be on using this new artificial labor to reduce to cost of living for americans to less than what future wages will be. Wages will surely drop, but if it can buy more, there's no issue with robotics at all.
>>130125901
living wage must come before post-scarcity
living wage =/= socialism, as it keeps classes intact and in fact exacerbates them
>>130125901
National Socialism? I'm pretty sure he's right about that. It is kinda going that way thanks to the democrat communists.

>'... socialism is, in fact, inevitable.'
>how do you respond to this?
What you people don't seem to understand is that America will become what you are to a car factory.
And you will become what the robots are to you.
American superiority will create global socialism, the beneficiary being the USA.
>>130128747
Unless you're from the future, that's an odd thing to presume.
>>130129605
>post-scarcity
Literally impossible
He's right, socialism is inevitable because socialism is death of society
