Are you surprised? The more efficient machines become, the harder humans will need to work to compete.

Edit: People are downvoting this as if it was something I wanted. It just seems like reality to me.

That's the problem with capitalism and competition in capitalism. Everyone competes to maximize cost savings and profit.

I don't know of a solution but this ain't it.

That's the worst part isn't it. You see all these problems but I have no idea what to do about it. Even theoretical solutions don't hold up, let alone practical limitations.

There are solutions. But no fast ones without violence, and no long ones that won't come too late.
