Today wage dependence best defines class, but wage dependence will be impossible after AI robots replace most paid work. After robots force us to end wage dependence, class will need a new definition.
Wage slavery should be illegal, like other forms of slavery. That will require acceptance of unearned income, and an admission that wealth comes from nature; not human labor. There will still be a lot of unpaid work, and more time to do it. Rather that taking pride in harvesting nature's wealth ourselves, we will have the humility to be thankful for the natural wealth the the robots will harvest, process, and deliver for us. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
