What things like automation mean is that employment, ON AVERAGE, requires more education. Of course, there are many openings for people with a third-grade education, but not as many.
Of course, the diabolically evil people running our society are making sure that many high school and college graduates DO have a third-grade education.
Higher productivity SHOULD mean greater wealth for everybody. What the diabolically evil people making our tax policy, regulations, etc., are doing is making sure that a small number of people are productive enough to keep society sort-of functioning, while huge numbers of people are being aborted, and destroyed intellectually and physically after birth, incapable of being mothers and fathers, etc., etc.
Thanks! I feel better about my post now.
