That is true. Wealth can grow and life can be better for all.

I do worry, however, about our educational system and our social systems. A lot of people -- a lot -- are really not employable. I worry that we might slip into a world where money "goes away" and everything is "free". You know: robot factories make stuff, people sit at home, EBT cards arrive, people go to stores and then they come home with things.

That would be a pretty pointless existence. It doesn't have to be that way -- but I think Liberal policies are taking us in that direction, and I don't see many Republicans creating a better path.

My two cents.
And I hope you are feeling as well as can be today. Praying for you!

Fortunately, we have a promise that he who doesn't work won't eat.

Doesn't say anything about social conditions. ;)

I'm sure people will find something to do. Even the bums I know have a hobby of some kind.

Incorrect. A lot of people are not employable because (1) they are not worth the current minimum wage, and (2) the value of the benefits they are eligible for, exceeds the pay they are likely to get in the job market so they have no incentive to acquire marketable skills.

Remove the Welfare State, put people into a "work or die" environment, and unemployment will go down.
