I work a production job and it's not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. I'm making nearly three times minimum wage and I have a desirable working schedule. Manufacturing will never be entirely automated and will always need people to oversee the work the machines do. It's not the most luxurious work but it's certainly more solid than the retail and warehousing hellscapes people are landing in.
what was the ticket for then?
The "stock market" in itself is people just buying and selling ownership of companies, so what's good for the country absolutely will be good for the stock market in the long run. A country with solid manufacturing and a huge domestic market and a reasonably high-IQ population with a cultural work ethic does not even need to spend five seconds worrying about the stock market. But the problem of course is that there's so much leverage in the market and so many massive institutional investors because playing stonks was the only way to protect the value of your money for such a long time due to inflationary monetary policy. It became the economic metagame, and people overoptimized for it, and now the game is getting patched, and they're whining because they preferred CS 1.6 over Source, so to speak.
I hope all the blackpilled short sellers jumped.
Ah, that makes sense, he was catapulted into the zeitgeist by being labeled as an enemy of the narrative. He's definitely doing something right considering how much staying power he has among the Boomer right.
I work Manufacturing too. I don't think automation will ever take over. The automation machines we do have brake every other day. Then it's a pain in the ass to get anyone to fix it, think the ice cream machines at Mc Donald's.
Eric Trump needs a monocle in this scenario.
Only the ones that shifted into Asian markets, to hedge against the predicted US instability.
We’ve been steadily automating manufacturing for centuries.
So many people would be down for that if it didn’t come out of their wages or tax. And you allowed them to pay towards it if they wanted it to go down quicker.
I think one of the best counters to this is the existence of UAW, none of those fuckers are working minimum wage.
also, couldn't trump declare martial law in that case?
I think it’s fair but I know the worst SJWs would rather die than work a single day of honest labor.
CatTurd is like a late-night host for MAGA boomers. Broad jokes about the current "thing" that pretend to be edgy. Imagine a Jay Leno joke about OJ Simpson written in a Garfield comic strip; that is CatTurd. Not as brash as that
"It's the language of the unheard, Drumpf! Now stop doing what you were democratically elected to do -- like a fascist -- and start obeying the violent mob supported by corporate interests and unelected pencil pushers, or else!"
... Am I missing a reference here? Cause that sounds familiar. Did that happen during the summer of love? Cause if so they sure as shit memory holed that stuff real fucking quick.
Imagine if your company was able to have a department of on the floor techs; a merging of two worlds. But alas, corporate bureaucracy/law has been practiced to a scalpel sharp art. It's a shame, been thinking about moving to an area where the FAME USA apprenticeships are. I'm speculating that wherever those programs are, they will be the seed crystal as factories may be built.
