Human production has increased many times over.

I’m so tired of hearing we need more young people to support the retired.

No. There is plenty of money from the huge increases in production thanks to all that technology.

It’s just that :

1. The workers aren’t getting any of the profits from their increased productivity and subsequently, the government isn’t getting the taxes from it.

2. The government isn’t taxing the billionaires who are hoarding the money that would be more than enough to cover the expenses.

Both are part of the problem but the 2nd one is the biggest.

We were promised that we would all be working less since production is so efficient now.

And yet we work more and more. Even though profit margins keep increasing.

If things were balanced, the average person would be working less and be living more comfortably.
