RE: Debunking Pessimism About Automation: Global Inequality Continues to Collapse

in #economics8 years ago

Very well said all around. 1820s inequality was unjustifiably the result of rent extraction by force from a ruling class. That's still a problem now, just less a total of all income so it's less noticeable.

Also agree that as long as the human spirit is free to innovate, we'll be fine.
