the argument of "if there's a $15/hr minimum wage then more jobs will be automated" always fucks me up because if our whole economic system wasn't backwards, people working less thanks to automation would be a GOOD thing
working in searing hot kitchens, cooking whole meals in 5 minutes, and dealing with assholes every day is unskilled labor. i sent an email today, which is real work
I'm not saying "technology and medicine bad" lol I'm saying that thousands of years of progress could have liberated us and created societies where we work so much less for so much more instead of fueling a rich elite
