Pharmacy revenues will remain constant. The only difference is that instead of paying pharmacists, all that money is just going to sit in the caymans, with all the other automation gains.
Should we bring back telephone operators too? The price for phone service (especially long distance) has dropped since phones were invented, surely some of that is due to automation and tech advances.
Do you think technical progress is making life worse for the average person? I realize it's popular opinion (and I tend to agree) that it's disproportionately benefiting the richest. But that doesn't mean most people aren't benefiting from the cost/time savings that new technology has brought. Curious to hear why you think that way.
I have serious doubts that tech is making us happier, overall, and that is’s actually significantly improving productivity, outside a few areas where is has done so massively such that the effect is still strongly positive.
Exceptions for certain areas like medical research, obviously, but really, things were fine before Netflix and free long distance and such.
I'm just talking about pharmacists and telephone operators. I dont mind pharmacists and I didnt mind telephone operators. My life isnt much better now that telephone operators are gone.
