re: #21 JeffFX

This guy is just the tip of the iceberg. People who aren’t able to be knowledge workers have it really bad in this country since outsourcing overseas destroyed their means of support.

Many people had a middle-class American life screwing doodads onto widgets in some factory, and that was taken away by overseas outsourcing and automation. They’re lost and afraid, and easy marks for the wingnut grifters.

It seems to me that we have to eventually move to a socialist system as machines replace labor. That day isn’t today, but it’s coming.

There are jobs out there, but it seems people either don’t want to be re-educated for those jobs, move to where they are or think they should earn the same as the old job.
