Eventually there will be no jobs, everyone will live on a subsistence payout by the government, and the entire world's wealth will be controlled by 0.001% of the population.

Why do you think the richmo's will give their wealth to charity? That certainly hasn't been the trend so far.

If you had several trillion dollars lying around and giving away 1 trillion of those dollars could stave off the possibility of an armed mob dragging you to the guillotine, or liberal politicians taxing your wealth into complete non existence, what would you do?

the question is: what will the world look like when a supermajority of the population contributes virtually zero value to the global economy?

that population of ineffectuals - who still have the full suite of human needs and cravings that cost energy to satisfy - will need to be *managed* and *controlled* like zoo animals (and arguably already are by a sort of technologically mediated hyper-consumerism).

poverty levels worldwide are at historical lows yet social anxiety is at an all time high. a world starved of spirituality is no joke.

It's Vonnegut. Great book. Discounting some of the technological descriptions it really captures all of the issues we face as a result of automation despite being written in the 50's. It's even got the educational-industrial complex and rampant credentialism down pat (the main character's real estate agent has a PHD in real estate sales and wrote the longest dissertation on the topic ever, lol!). Before he was a writer, Vonnegut was an engineer at GE where he got a glimpse of the future.

Higher rates make money cost more, money in this current system (fiat) is commodified human labor.

Higher interest rates = more demand for money from banks = bank deposits pay savers a higher rate.

It also makes the price of capital good producing things lower.

The past 10 years of boomer induced low interest rates are nothing but a generational genocidal campaign that they almost won against younger generations.
