I can sympathize only so much with self-induced joblessness. Is it the burden of anyone else to ensure I have marketable skills in order to provide for my family should I become replaceable?
Automation may sound dire if my only hope is to depend on others to lower the bar in order for me to perform labor that is better suited for cheaper and more efficient technology.
Please stop it with the victimhood mentality and enabling people to blame others for their misfortunes. Poverty is the default of this world and it should be the goal of those engulfed in it to drag themselves out. If they cannot or will not then that is their fate.
