This is the new American Dream bullshit they are trying to shovel down our throats when they realized we finally woke up and stop believing in it.
What they really want since the beginning of our country is slave labor.

I hope the billionaires rot in their bunkers after they are welded in
They've been promising us that since the fifties or sixties, with robots.
Technology has never reduced working hours: why pay the overhead on two people working 20 hours, when you could just have one work 40? The only thing that's ever reduced the work week is union action.
Quit reading his meaning with a positive twist. He's telling you now that your hours are going to be cut and your S O can't find a job. Only one person is working and it's part time.
Wow. That is some epic Marie-Antoinette level trolling.
He's actually pretty good at trolling the employees he's abusing. Remember when he told Amazon employees that they paid for his flight to space ?
So which is it Jeff? Will the supposed wealth from AI go to business owners or to workers? Because right now it's being sold as a cheap replacement for human labor, not as a way for workers to work less. You can't have it both ways.
Literally nothing material is stopping us from that right now. We already had single income families and have made huge efficiency gains since then.
And those gains went to the capital class. Both directly, through wage theft, and through cost inflation, and through lower taxes on the rich that allowed them to hoard more of their wealth. It would be very material to fix any one of these problems. But outside of a revolution, or a mass mobilization towards unions, I don't see a clear path to achieving any of these at a systemic level.
Yes Jeff I'm sure that's a thing that will happen despite the fact that you've spent decades making the exact opposite of that thing happen, I totally believe you
Hes basically talking about himself. Everyone else will be dead or a slave
It will never because they already know what a bunch of bored unoccupied people will do even when they live in good times. Which is go online and get fed propaganda and burn the whole fucking thing down looking for lizard people In minority spaces while those minorities help them do it. They’ll do this without the internet but at least it’s kept to small areas.
Shit look at retired people fucking up everything because they have too much time.
I know how this will sound but there it is.
They don't want people having free time because then we'll educate ourselves and organize.
The rich certainly see this as fucking everything up.
Are you against the 3 day workweek because people will use their extra leisure time to be racist?
