well currently it’s employing a whole bunch of us Canadians

so yeah. the robots are coming for yer jahbs. but only after US companies came to Canada to get the machines designed and built.

but don’t worry, we’re not winning here either. those same US companies own plants in Canada that are also automating away Canadian jobs, but without the solace that the company is still at least Canadian.

also, assembly line work sucks. I’d go crazy doing the same thing every forty five seconds for ten hours straight five days a week.

imo people need to consume less overall. slow the economy but focus it into more local and productive stuff. even though that sort of thing vastly hurts my industry.
