K shaped economy. Rich are up, middle and poor are down. But the rich REQUIRE those beneath them to maintain their ups. So either: genuinely a form of slavery, or economic crash that hurts everyone. Don't care? It'll bite you hard.

The reason the rich have been pushing boundaries so hard the last decade or two is because they aren’t far away from never needing us again. Once the technology is there to replace the jobs billions of people will be systemically wiped out across the globe.

Actually, everyone is getting richer. The poor and middle class included.
