@lonelyowl13 @scottsantens @freemo The longer term question is what do you do when (a) the economy does not NEED the labor output of many people and/or (b) a lot of people have no useful financial contribution they can make to the economy.
The current answer to that question seems to be "get rid of those people" which is bad.
There is a lot of social capital not being generated. People could add value there when they are not adding value to the financial economy.
