They should probably rewrite the text books to say:
Better productivity=more profits=more money to shareholders. (Or a new yacht for the owner)
AI is going to have an impact on labor, how that washes out might not be pretty.
What's the problem with more money to shareholders??
When people INVEST in companies, that means companies are profitable AND people are working. MOST LIKELY that same company is expanding and growing, which means more jobs, better paying jobs, and other benefits you seem to not like too much.
Pretty much any company experiencing growth, pays higher wages in order to attract more workers needed to expand, existing workers seeing promotions into higher paying jobs to train new workers and manage operations.
What you don't seem to understand is that wealthy people INVEST their funds and that creates more $$ for companies to grow and expand. When shareholders get paid, that's the reward for allowing YOUR MONEY to be used for POTENTIAL profits.
Since you hate that, give up your retirement and 401K plan. Because that's ALSO being used to fund more companies growth and to PAY TOUR PLAN FOR YOUR BENEFIT!!
Look, EVERYBODY with a brain understands that there is going to be SOME "friendly fire" in this world.
But that simply does not excuse retards having guns.
