Tag Archives: cheap goods

Stacy Summary:  I remember as a child watching some old 50′s programming where scientists envisioned a future in which robots would do all sorts of work for us and that this would give us idyllic leisure time.  They neglected to envision the zero income feature of having no labor . . .

• Cheap goods endanger the very idea of human labor

• Robots losing their jobs in Japan (via Mish)

Updates:

• More and more Americans choosing to work for free

• Farmers giving away their cows for free, unable to afford to feed them
