AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
That's so funny. They actually think robots working for cheap will make people poorer.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I always thought zeitgiest was bullshit, and now I'm convinced.
Who wants to work in a fucking factory anyways? Would you rather work a low paying job that
doesn't stimulate you at all, or would you rather go out and pursue your dreams? With robots
doing all the gruntwork, that's now a possibility for everyone.

Think about it.
As nomads, human beings had very little time for thinking and contemplation about higher things.
It was a constant struggle to find the next food source.
In the agricultural age, the farmers are able to support a philosopher class. There is a new age
of art, thinking and design.
Around the time of industrialization, humanity experiences another enlightenment, as the
increased wealth afforded by more efficient production has made it easier to spend energy
thinking about advanced things.
Why should robots be any different? If robots make everything for near-free, why would the poor
suffer?

Actually, I've read a little further into one of the sections and it sort of turned around and
said tech will make things better because people will be able to pursue their real lives (not
that they couldn't do so before). So it's not totally stupid, but it's silly that they think they
know exactly where the world is/should be going.
Say, is this a real person posting these every week or is just a bot?

Zeitgesit is bullshit. But you obviously have no idea how the economy works. :\
