I've offered beggars food only to have it thrown away in front of me. Offered odd jobs only to be told to fk off. These people want something for nothing and feel the rest of society owes them a living. On the other hand you have kids living in shacks, studying by candle light and still pulling multiple distinctions in school. Old women walking for miles to sell sweets and chips to put something on the table. Skilled men willing to work hard construction for R100 a day. These are the people who deserve assistance. |

increased mechanization will only increase unemployment. if it can be done by automatons then you should be worried about your future.

The same fears were had during the industrial revolution. Automation will create more, skilled jobs. Just different and newer ones. Progress can't be held back, people need to adapt.
