Robots will work 24-7 without overtime pay if their function is needed. no bitching either. No family leave, wow, all the advantages. I say bring em on and get them here quick.
Look over this page and see just what is involved cost wise to hire 1 employee for a job.

Now look at the cost of robotics and it's advantages.

And just a quick quote to reinforce what I said above,
"For example, many organizations find that vacuuming takes up approximately 30% of total facility cleaning time. When this repetitive task is automated, cleaning teams report a 25% boost in efficiency. The existing cleaning staff can then relocate their time to higher-value services like disinfecting, deep cleaning, and polishing"
Increases efficiency,that is 2d priorty after PROFIT,without profit,the rest is moot.
As for going to Mars, For years I was scratching my head why "going to the moon" was so important. Which I still don't think we ever went, it was movie magic. But anyway. alot of the tech we are using right now to argue at each other 1000's of mile apart is thanks to the space program. So a trip to mars, may not be feasible, but the tech coming from it will change the world in a positive way.it will take time. There have been times when poor people had a great idea nad it changed the world.But it took alot of people investing in the idea to get it mainstream. most of them rich as they had profited from other investments. You hate money so bad, But our world would be ALOT different if there was no rich people. we would be using rotary dial phones, which I still do at home. but our tech would be "old" because there would be no money to invest in improvments.
And now you are supporting that these billionaires replace those jobs with AI and robots.
They are not just planning to eliminate cleaning. That is possible TODAY.
They are imagining processes that take 10,000 people now to be done by 100 max.
It only leaves some jobs for the most highly educated people.
You are not supporting a system that allows everyone to maximize their education.
So, tell me what the future you are imagining looks like. PLEASE?
Going to the moon was a PR STUNT. It was ONLY intended to show the US to be stronger than the USSR. If you're really susceptible to such a dumb conspiracy theory, you are not capable of logically analyzing anything going on today. Not even the RUSSIANS ever argued that the US didn't go to the moon. Do you think some dumb-ass on YouTube can come up with better arguments, than the Russians, who had their own damn impressive space program? You acknowledge the technology gains from going to the moon and what the US was capable after. All of that is in line with ACTUALLY going
to the moon, instead of faking it. It's probably more complicated and expensive to FAKE going to the moon, without missing any details that would debunk it, than actually going
to the moon. Then why WOULDN'T they actually go? Do you think they would risk giving the Russians the best PR EVER?
If you think that some YouTuber has actually debunked it, you're wrong. Those people
are idiots and their pathetic debunking attempts can be debunked in minutes. A socialist, 'America-hater', like me, would love another reason to show your country to be horrible.
If there is any REAL evidence that they faked going to the moon, I would mention it every other day.
There is NO GOOD REASON to go to Mars. You don't have to show your technical dominance anymore. We all know it, and are trying to become independent from it, because you cannot be trusted anymore. Going to Mars doesn't help convince anyone not to. The only reason why Elon Musk wants other people to go to Mars, is to glorify HIM. Why would the US spend trillions of PUBLIC money to glorify a PRIVATE wealthy man? It's NOT for the technology benefit, because there are way better challenges to do that, that also benefit humanity much more.
Musk argues that Mars is a backup for Earth, for when we destroy the livability of Earth. That's incredibly stupid, because it is about a billion times easier and cheaper to preserve Earth than to make Mars habitable. Until it IS habitable, it's NOT a backup for Earth. It will require a constant supply of resources from Earth to support any poor soul living on Mars.
Those are exactly the types of jobs that will be gone.
Jobs like hairdresser will probably survive. How comfortable will people feel with a robot using scissors and razors close to their eyes and major arteries?
Production jobs will be the first to go. A lot of them are already gone. Repair jobs will take a bit longer, but with production becoming cheaper, parts will become cheaper.
It's possible to design complicated machines to be easily repaired by robots, by just exchanging disposable parts.
They are not spending trillions on AI for fun. They are intending to replace MOST jobs. That means that people will be competing over the remaining jobs. And that means we will all be vulnerable to exploitation. That's what happens to things that are scarce but vital. It is why a drug that is easy to make can cost $50,000 per dose.
What are you considering to be "college educated wages"?
Does it allow a family food, housing, healthcare, raising children and paying for their education on a single income?
If not, what kind of education is required for that?
How many people are in the position to have that, today?
That burger flipper probably has no education. What can he/she do, to provide themselves food, housing, healthcare, raising 1 child and paying for its education?
Stop talking about those lazy people. I am asking for the most motivated and efficient burger flipper his employer have ever seen, working his ass off 50 hrs/week. He just has no education, because he needed to work, because his father died of colon cancer and his mother was working the graveyard shift as a nurse, so he needed to take care of his 2 siblings. In your world, he is fucked, unless he beats incredible odds.
This is the education level in your country:
No High School Diploma (less than high school): ~9%
High School Graduate (no college): ~28%
Some College / Associate Degree (no bachelor’s): ~25%*
Bachelor’s Degree (college education): ~23%
Advanced Degrees (master’s, professional, doctorate): ~14%
Which of them deserve to earn food, housing, healthcare, raising 1 child
and paying for its education?
Do we agree about the Moon and Mars now?
Kinda sad really that so much education is needed, my grandfather had a 2d grade education and made a damn good living as a welder and machine operator,supported his wife and kid.but died due to heart failure.
Yeah, why is that, that so much education is needed to make a living?
do you want a surgeon doing your heart bypass with a associates degree?
Do you want a high school grad formulating your medicines?
Well if you don't want these things, you have to have education available for them to obtain. And if they obtain the education, score well, they deserve "interest" on the investment they made in themselves by earning a better wage than a burger flipper. Burger flippers that have done it for 15 years obviously don't have ambition to do any better so they would probably still be at moms anyway.
We are not talking about "good paying jobs", we are talking about being able to LIVE from a job. The minimum is being able to rent a small apartment, to buy food, and to have access to healthcare. Anything less is a risk to your survival.
You are saying that this minimum is only possible with a collage education.
That means without it, you cannot build yourself a LIFE.
Jobs that required a bachelor, in the 1980s, those were GOOD paying jobs. Father drove home in an expensive car, to go home to his family, living in a big house, with kids who were all set to go to university. Today, it's about the minimum, to get by. There are not a lot jobs requiring a bachelor, that would make it possible to buy a house in the current market. You need a couple now, who both have such a job, to be able to buy a house, and it's not even a big one.
Over regulation of industry drove up cost, they have to cut cost to maintain profit, the purpose of running a business. Labor is a cost that can be cut or eliminated with automation.
Those regulations are due to liberals democrats and unions. they claim to push for higher wages but then in turn make the cost of doing business to high for the employers. My cousin paid autoworker union dues for several years and said he got absolutely NOTHING for those dues.
Say you and your buddies on a work crew get a new system of working put in place,all of you know it's unsafe,are you going to go to work in an unsafe environment for your corporate overlord or are you all going to stick together to call out the unsafe way of working?
Yeah unions really fucked up the USA didn't they?
What about all the law enforcement agency unions? Almost every police officer is part of a Union,are they fucking up the USA?
I did work in a dangerous job,that's why I wound up injured. no union,no nothing. i was just as hurt being non union as if I had paid in dues for years. Shit happens in a work place. union or not.
But just as with the postal service, the unions now have it so screwed up you can't even fire people.
when a janitor sleeps in the break room half his shift, and a temp worker goes to pickup a broom to clean up a mess he made and gets wrote up because it's not his job and the sleeping janitor gets a bonus for it,that's fucked up, but it happened to a friend of mine that worked at a usps warehouse over Christmas. the union protects the cops that fuck up and get fired from 1 place,and they just go elsewhere,because the record keeping is in favor of the cop,not the people. do some reading before you support unions in modern times.

That's because our workplaces are heavily regulated.
You don't need a union if the government protects you.

i guess kids need to go back to doing it because the chemicals are so "dangerous".

The NFL is big business and only does what their wallets tells them is popular.
I can imagine that Nascar could hurt itself by going 'woke',
that's the sport that is most popular in solidly red areas.

That is the heaviest sunbed tanning, spray-tan or dedication to lay in the sun for months, that I have ever seen on a white guy. The grease is either pouring out from his skin, because he fried himself, or because he tries to minimize the damage to his skin
with gallons of skin care product. And the suit bugs me too; char(cough)latan!
OK, personal attacks are not arguments, but what a caricature of a man.
Oh, it's popular on X is it? Maybe because Elon Musk favors and reposts the shit out of that grievance porn?
Oh, showing some videos of black people misbehaving is validating your 'black fatigue'. No context why they did that there. Could be a reaction to some fucking racist. But, of course, there is never a reason to be an ass-hole, as a reaction to some ass-hole. We only get to see REACTIONS. And even if this was just uncalled for (1% chance), have you ever heard the term 'Karen'? A few videos are not evidence for black people being nasty more often than white people. Do you know how many videos of white people being ass-holes
I have seen? Or how many white ass-holes I have seen IN PERSON? But, I understand that it satisfies your bias.
Some people are insufferable cunts, the majority is white. Hey, I'm white...
His definition for "Anti-white-racism" are all the terms that describe actual racism.
There is no logical reaction to this. The only valid respons is FUCK YOU!
Oh, the cat comes out of the bag. He is repurposing the term 'black fatigue' in order to destroy a term made up by a black woman. He knows that it was successful with 'woke', so he uses that strategy again. How devious.
"The term was first coined and popularized by American diversity, equity, and inclusion expert Mary-Frances Winters. She introduced the term in her 2020 book Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit, using it to describe the cumulative emotional, physical, and psychological exhaustion that Black people experience from navigating persistent systemic racism and microaggressions."
He even admits this, but that's all IMAGINARY. Even if it was, it would still be a dick move. Are YOU, phart, seriously backing up this guy, saying that racism/discrimination isn't real, never was real, and is now only directed at white people? Can you say that, without fear
of damaging your soul? (You believe in a soul, don't you?)
Sorry, phart, I wanted to see this video to the end, but I can't stand that garbage person any longer than about 5 minutes.
I don't have to watch the video to agree that there are lots of Muslims in the world, who feel exactly like you're quoting there. There are also many Muslims who want to live in freedom from that ideology. Why do you think that people in Iran are protesting? When Saudi Arabia is beheading people, those are Muslims, who are rejecting that ideology. Your government is now arguing that they are helping the Muslims in Iran to live free, but your government is also helping the regime in Saudi Arabia to suppress Muslims like that in Saudi Arabia. Your government doesn't care about their freedom, it only cares that their government plays ball with yours. That's why the actions of your government have only resulted in creating more of the ideology that you quoted.
There is no reason for why Muslims could not be a peaceful religion, as much as Christianity can be called a peaceful religion. There is objectively less evil in the koran, than in the bible. The good parts are about equal. Muslims clearly have a longer path to walk towards what I consider beneficial to humanity, but that could also be a good thing.
It might be easier to drop a horrible religion all-together, than one that keeps lingering between half-decent and generally annoying. Just drop the primitive dogmas and finally evolve to using REASON to UNDERSTAND what's good for humanity, instead of someone telling you, based on what's written in some very old book.

Storming a church and interrupting the peaceable assembly of others can be charged as a crime, because it is.
"It is a criminal act to intentionally interfere with the expression of free speech of others." Don Lemon was just arrested for covering an anti-ICE protest. If there is ONE thing that should be protected by the 1st Amendment, it's the right to REPORT on protests.
Protest organizers and participants said they were targeting a pastor at Cities Church who they believed also serves as a local ICE official (specifically an acting director of the ICE field office in Minnesota). That dual role, religious leader and immigration enforcement official, was central to their reason for taking the protest into the church.
If a Christian leader is still involved in ICE, as it is operating today, they are unqualified to represent Jesus.
If police is going to arrest organizers or the main participants of a protest, which
is breaking the law, that is warranted, and the risk they take for doing that.
Arresting journalists covering the protest is clearly a violation of the 1st Amendment, and I am sure only intended as INTIMIDATION. You don't seem to understand that the 1st Amendment is intended to protect the people from GOVERNMENT interference.
In fact, broadcast companies are failing to do journalism nowadays
and new media is picking up the broken pieces.
You're not providing a legal argument, that will stick in court.
The fact that journalists get paid is not relevant and never has been.
Journalists who work for broadcast companies get paid too, sometimes
even many millions per year.
But, they would of course not be arrested while doing that.
Of the 9 people who were arrested in that protest, 2 were journalists.
When do you start to care about ICE breaking the law,
instead of the victimized citizens who are protesting that?
A woman can be grabbed by 4 armed masked men, and pulled into a van,
while the police is watching, because that's how ICE operates.
How idiotic for a country, to not just allow that, but organize that?
Before Trump, you would have said that it was your 2nd Amendment duty, to protect that woman, and shoot her assaulters, But now your idiot president hired thousands of thugs, who's uniform is just what the end up buying at their local military surplus. Who the hell came up with that? It's not just the cruelty, it's also the sheer INCOMPETENCE of your stupid regime, that makes me angry.
I doubt fox news or newsmax reporters would crash into a church for views. Even they are above doing something that sacrilege .You don't mess with places of worship.I would feel the same if it was a mosque. I don't like the people that go in them,or their beliefs but it is just mutual respect for 1's place of worship.
Your government says the protest interrupted the service and impeded congregants’ rights, and prosecutors claim Lemon’s presence and actions went beyond neutral reporting. Whether his presence constitutes protected journalism or unlawful interference is now a matter for the courts to decide.
The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, 18 U.S.C. § 248, makes it a federal crime to use force, threats, obstruction, or intimidation to interfere with a person’s exercise of rights at a place of worship or reproductive health facility. I have seen NO evidence of him engaging in force, threats, obstruction, or intimidation. An unbiased judge will dismiss the charges.
ICE is not law enforcement, ICE are themselves criminals now.
Until they start to obey the law, they cannot enforce the law.
If you go somewhere that you're not supposed to, you get a fine. Unless you have evidence that Don Lemon broke something, there is no reason for a judge to be involved.
Religion is a first amendement right, so it should have protections from the government and people trying to take people's right away. A little first time 'interference' should not be a crime, it should be no more than an infraction/violation. The law should not protect religion anymore than any other expression of free speech. The term 'sacrilege' is a religious term, which doesn't fit the 1st Amendment. Churches should also no longer be exempt from paying taxes. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …”
"I don't like how people are mean to me, when I am mean to them."
"That shouldn't be allowed."
This was his way of emphasizing what some call a “color‑blind” approach to race,
the idea that if we stopped highlighting racial categories in everyday interactions,
racial divisions could diminish over time. He is not a representative for most black people in the US. This contrasts with the majority view among Black Americans, who see racism as both systemic and structural, requiring active attention and solutions.
You're making an "appeal to authority" fallacy. The reasoning goes like:
“Morgan Freeman says stop talking about race → therefore, that is the best way
to reduce racism.”
It’s fallacious because his celebrity status does not confer special insight into
systemic sociology.
I think it's just an argument from people who want people to stop talking about racism.
The reality is that racism is reemerging in alarming ways, more openly than in previous decades, making silence both unrealistic and dangerous.
Ignoring race doesn’t make racism disappear. It can hide inequalities,
invalidate experiences, maintain the status quo, and erase cultural identity.
Real change requires acknowledging race, while addressing inequities.
I remember when it was bad to believe in the doctrine of “separate but equal.” Now, it is perfectly acceptable, so long as your skin is a politically correct shade, and not too pale, of course.
Indeed, the audacity of calling a country that elected a half-black man to be POTUS not once but twice, and where the wealthiest woman in the world is Oprah Winfrey, and thousands of black men and women belong to the millionaires club, is palpable. It is staggeringly mind numbing to hear many insisting it is now worse for black people in this nation than it was in 1925!
What rot!
But, do go one. Please. Perpetuate that myth. Keep claiming America is racist merely because white people live here. Ignore the unapologetic racism of Leftist activists and black separatist race grifters who get richer with each manufactured outrage, which oddly always seems to be the fault of whitey for some reason.
This is racism is being projected onto those who have committed the cardinal sin of being born white, by those who profit most from the division it creates. Up is down, war is peace, and ignorance is power in a world turned upside down by those who, failing to find racism in our society, create it themselves and then reward themselves richly for calling it out. It is a world in which the only people who can now be safely discriminated against are the ones who are melanin lacking, and those who profit from discrimination this laugh on the way to the bank.
Why is your president constantly publicly insulted the intelligence of Jasmine Crockett, who knows all of the law from memory and obviously speaks and reads at a much higher level than the president himself?
Can you point me to some of those 'Leftist race grifters', who are pushing 'Black separatism'?
A grifter is someone who makes money, influence, or attention by deceiving people, especially by pretending to be sincere, principled, or aligned with a cause they don’t genuinely believe in. There is a lot of it on the right, because right-wing ideology favors the wealthy. It is openly documented how almost all right-wing media, old and new, is funded by billions of dollars from the wealthy. To a lesser extend there is corporate liberal media, funded by liberal billionaires, but there is none of that on the LEFT. The left threatens billionaires, because we think they should not exist. They are not funding a movement that wants to tax them out of existence.
When I accuse the US of being racist, I have lots of other examples than that white people live there. Like the fact that ICE is racially profiling people to attack, consistently on a large scale, while we are speaking.
Being born white is not a sin, it's a privilege. No one is accusing me of having low IQ and being incompetent, based on my skin color, because I'm white. If I was black in America, I would now have to prove I am qualified for my job, based solely on being part of a GROUP, that was hired while DEI existed, without being INDIVIDUALLY assessed. Being treated as a ethnic group, instead of as an individual, is discrimination.
If melanin people are discriminated against, than why are white people on average still SO MUCH BETTER OFF, than black people on average? You can only explain that with racism or by engaging in racism. Which one will you pick?
The wealthiest woman in the world is NOT Oprah Winfrey, it is Alice Walton, the Walmart heiress, with an estimated fortune of around $101 billion. Oprah Winfrey’s net worth is about $3.2 billion. Funny how you put sexism on top of racism, and making a separate category for women. The wealthiest PERSON in the world is Elon Musk, with ~$700 billion+. He is white, from South Africa, from a line of apartheid supporting white wealthy people. He is also known from his weird waving, that exactly looked like two Nazi salutes, during your PRESIDENT'S campaign. No one on the side of your president has acknowledged this and condemned this, and Elon Musk was allowed to go into your government's finances and do whatever he wanted with it. Are you going to deny that those were intended as Nazi salutes, or are you going to say that Nazi salutes are not disqualifying for such an important position?
Race wouldn't be near the issue it is if Black people themselves would stop making it 1.
Otherwise, you are arguing that 'blacks' are doing that, because they are black,
which is: racism.
No, race is an issue, because you cannot stop making it an issue.
You have no arguments against anything else I said, so racism is real.
If I turned on the news and the majority of criminals displayed on the screen were white, um,i wouldn't think blacks were the majority ,nothing there to enforce that observation.
If I were to veiw the population of the nearest jail and they were all white, um, blacks aren't the issue,nothing there to enforce the observation.
So HOW are people of other races bringing attention onto themselves?
One of you is denying that have any problems and the other is calling them
all criminals. How am I supposed to take you lot seriously?
You're not dealing in reality. Your "facts" change according to what you want
to argue for. Discuss you ideas with each other first, and come to me with your combined conclusion, about how black people are either incredibly privileged or
how they are awfully struggling.
If you are saying that they are privileged AND struggling, then you are just saying that it's because they are black, which is: racism.
In any case, if that WOULD be the reality, how the fuck is IGNORING race then going to solve anything? IF race WAS the ACTUAL problem, then how stupid
is ignoring it? Your whole support for ignoring race, proves that wrong.
You obviously care about the problem, so explain why you don't want to fix it.
Or, just keep your head buried in the sand regarding anything I post that questions your politics..
Your choice.
