1) No, I am suggesting a SEVERE decrease in the number of untrained and dangerous "care providers". This is not an elimination, but they will ensure that neglect will no longer be a thing the elderly have to fear. I would rather shoot myself then subject myself to the elderly care that most countries provide. At least with a robot, I know it won't be lazy and it won't steal my social security.
Oh look, you're scared again, what a surprise.
This time of people stealing from you when you're old, and your solution is to kill yourself instead. Seems rational.
You're already considered old to some people, just saying.
2) "you haven't come to that thought on your own". That's the most retarded thing I've ever seen short of "statistics are not a measurement of concrete evidence". Nobody comes up with ideas on their own. No man is an island. You didn't come up with your shitty ideas without outside influence. You're a goddamned idiot.
Oh look, you're being an imbecile again, what a surprise.
What I meant is that you haven't read over the likely economic impact of an end to immigration, weighed up the pros and cons and come to the conclusion that in all likelihood it would be fine because automation will take over. What you have done is gone into it with the preconceived idea that you want to end immigration, how can that be forced to work, and have clutched at straws at the first moronic offering of a solution that you stumbled across. It's embarrassing. You are embarrassing.
When these unskilled jobs are lost, people will either transition to other professions requiring some level of skill/training (there is a dire need of new plumbers, construction workers, electricians, and HVAC techs these days), or new types of service industries will emerge.
Has this been your experience with mass unskilled labour immigration? That the resident population in those areas has just upskilled and transitioned to other professions? If so, why are you bothered? What a great thing! It's not what you've experienced though, is it?
Never mind it being a shit idea, new jobs will appear that you can't describe right now. We should stop immigration today based on new jobs that you can't even imagine being available in the next few weeks. Good work.
There will be a VERY painful transitional period though, and workforce participation rates will plummet as people who used to perform these jobs struggle to find new ones.
Either people need jobs or they don't. Finding new jobs for people to do because you automated old ones isn't a solution, either people need to work or they don't. If they don't need to work, end of capitalism and our entire way of life. If they do need to work they will get old and the jobs will still need doing and we're back with the same problem, too many old, not enough young. Your argument is circular.
Welfare and other social policies WILL expand, but people will still be required to work a job of some kind. The "singularity" is a long ways off.
You anticipate a more socialist set up in this future utopia? That surprises me, how do you feel about that?
Don't cherry pick your answers, I paid you the courtesy of shitting on each of your teenage thought process ideas, at least do the same in return.
P.s. the irony of you quoting xorthen's comment about statistics and then endlessly spouting the same fear soaked diarrhea about the same statistically irrelevant topics can't be lost on you can it?
