Yup, but thanks to unchecked capitalism, the increasing wealth is being concentrated in the hands of fewer and fewer. The corporations using AI to replace workers should be making up for the lost tax revenue, but corporations also don't pay much in taxes. The shareholders don't care though because they don't need social assistance, all they want is the force of law to protect their capital and keep the working class in line.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
