Okay so it seems I struck a nerve, sorry that wasn't my intention. I pointed out my different background to illustrate why I might have a different perspective than you.

Until now, I've never heard of a situation where an automation tax has been implemented, so a case study would be a great way for me to understand the circumstances that led to it working. I'll look into Pågen when I have a chance, since that seems like it could be a lead.

Capitalism certainly isn't the end-all solution, but arguably it's one of the best systems we've come up with so far.

I think that we in the US don't have nearly enough regulations to rein in the negative aspects of capitalism, but the most popular argument against further regulation is that it stifles innovation, and that's scary enough to people that we aren't taking enough steps to get ahead of it.
