When you put up two people nearly 80 years in age and an 80 year old gets elected its time to look internally.

A failing healthcare is also dangerous for citizens.

You cant mass immigrate 4% population a year and triple immigration numbers of low skilled labor, who are net takers, but maintain social services. We already have massively expanded our federal debt payments the last decade, so where is that money going to come from, especially when per worker productivity and GDP growth is stagnant and near the lowest in the OECD.

I’m not sure AI will ever replace truly skilled labor, because it hallucinates. It replaces people who make PowerPoint’s or Excel documents.

Was it sad when people who looked after horses were made obsolete when we began mass producing cars?

Or people who stoked furnaces?

This romanization of monotonous jobs is silly, and sounds like it wants to thrust us into poverty for some idealistic fantasy that excludes productivity gains. It also seems unrealistic, you cant trust code written by a programmer that randomly hallucinates and cant reliably check their work or explain what they even did.
