And now think of the ripple effect of all the jobs lost when places like Starbucks go out of business and restaurants go out of business. Then construction sites and so on.

Lmao no. People will still want to eat out, and will still want things built. Get real.

Yes people would want to still do those things. But how many people would want to wait on those people.

While thinking of that. Think of how much a waiter would want to get paid to do such a job when thier bill are already paid ? How about the cooks ? How about the people delivering the food to the restaurants, the bus Boys and so on. Then what does that do to the final bill and how many peoplenwill fund that palatable.

Just as many as want to do it now. Come back to reality, kid.

I know you don't, but I didn't ask you. People want to work, this is just a fact. We got civilisation started in the first place, didn't we?

[-] Pasta4u@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

No it is not a fact that people want to work. There are many people who if they could would never work a day in thier life.

Amputees exist, and yet "humans have legs" is true.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
