Are those 'terrible' machines really putting those people out of work? Or are they getting rid of a really dull job that we shouldn't be torturing people with?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Right now, computers, which are supposed to be our servant, are oppressing us.
Accountants, machinists, medical technicians, even software writers that write the software for 'machines' are being displaced without upscaled replacement jobs. Retrain, rehire into higher paying and value-added jobs? That may be the political myth of the modern era. There aren't enough of those jobs.
The global equalization of wages and the exponential growth in technology has created a job-killing machine that's only going to get worse.
Working people have alot of bad habits, but the worst of these is work.
It's not the work which kills people, it's the worry. It's not the revolution that destroys machinery it's the friction.
It is only when they go wrong that machines remind you how powerful they are.
In manufacturing, too much work is beyond repetitive - it is inhumane. The people doing this work aren't doing it because they want to - they are doing it because they have families to feed and clothe.
I'm afraid for all those who'll have the bread snatched from their mouths by these machines. What business has science and capitalism got, bringing all these new inventions into the works, before society has produced a generation educated up to using them!
I'm very good with technology, I always have been, and with machines in general. They seem not threatening like other people find them, but a source of fun and amusement.
When a machine begins to run without human aid, it is time to scrap it - whether it be a factory or a government.
