Date: February 23rd, 2018 10:44 AM Author: stimulating center persian the question is: what will the world look like when a supermajority of the population contributes virtually zero value to the global economy?
that population of ineffectuals - who still have the full suite of human needs and cravings that cost energy to satisfy - will need to be *managed* and *controlled* like zoo animals (and arguably already are by a sort of technologically mediated hyper-consumerism).
poverty levels worldwide are at historical lows yet social anxiety is at an all time high. a world starved of spirituality is no joke.

Is it Vonnegut or non fiction? |

Date: February 23rd, 2018 2:17 PM Author: vigorous fluffy dysfunction It's Vonnegut. Great book. Discounting some of the technological descriptions it really captures all of the issues we face as a result of automation despite being written in the 50's. It's even got the educational-industrial complex and rampant credentialism down pat (the main character's real estate agent has a PHD in real estate sales and wrote the longest dissertation on the topic ever, lol!). Before he was a writer, Vonnegut was an engineer at GE where he got a glimpse of the future. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3122456&forum_id=2#35470674) |

Date: February 23rd, 2018 10:57 AM Author: lake people who are hurt Higher rates make money cost more, money in this current system (fiat) is commodified human labor.
Higher interest rates = more demand for money from banks = bank deposits pay savers a higher rate.
It also makes the price of capital good producing things lower.
The past 10 years of boomer induced low interest rates are nothing but a generational genocidal campaign that they almost won against younger generations. |
