Automatic machines are the economic equivalency to uncompensated labor / by kevin murray

Those that control the means of production are always interested in increasing their profits, and if they can do so by decreasing their risk that dealing with human beings can definitely be for them, they are going to gravitate to those machines over people, and thereby it so follows that employers need not have to continue down that road of exploiting real human beings.  To the degree that machines replicate what use to be in fit and function, pretty much uncompensated labor -- that labor is thereby freed from having been placed into a situation in which they have essentially been working without getting fair compensation, or compelled by necessity to do what they have been doing, in order to survive.  After all, those that have few options will take what they can take in order to just live.

 

In regards to those that still remain in historical positions of weakness and lack the real ability to make a substantial change in their life, the fact that automatic machines are able to do the work that might indeed had been their personal burden to bear; perhaps then sets up a situation in which those that are the power brokers of that governance will actually see the usefulness of taking those people that previously were left behind, forsaken, forgotten, and exploited, so as to thereby give them a chance to get something of substance, out of life.  After all, if a given enterprise does not need to use what is essentially slavery by another name, than the opportunity for growth for those that have been considered to be something less than equal or of lesser value, should thereby commence.

 

We find that in a world in which there is a certain percentage of people that are all about making money by any means that they can do so, who thereby discover that with the advance of modern machinery that they don't have to create their empire by ruthlessly exploiting other people, then it therefore provides an opportunity for civilizations to become more livable for far more people; for those that are constantly oppressed are going to be people that are going to strike back, directly or indirectly in a multitude of ways, forever; and of which, the overall effect of that construct is dysfunctional and counter-productive for the very purpose of why civilizations were created in the first place, which is for the betterment of all of mankind.

 

This signifies, that the best way to look upon this hi-technology age, in which never have so many automated machines been able to do those jobs that previously had necessitated endless repetition and mindless tasks being so done day-by-day by humans is to recognize that this type of task work is definitely in decline.  So that, it so follows that this modern machinery has formed the real basis for the replacement of the historical usage of mankind as beasts of burden, which, thereby provides the symbolic lifting of those chains that have held back far too many people, from being able to fully develop and to utilize their minds so as to thereby improve themselves as well as their society.

 

This means that machines are truly meant to do what they do, and those so previously treated as machines are clearly meant to be treated instead as cognitive humans, worthy of our respect and deserving of our dignity.
