RE: Fuzz on the Line, Again? Steemit Glitches...
"we don't need four million more software developers!"
No, but we do need millions and millions of high quality organic food producers. That is extremely labor intensive, and I don't want to live in a future of automated factory farms. I would rather starve than eat what they are starting to call food.
Whereas I'm inclined to agree with you — on the surface — I fear that may be a short-term fix. I expect people will turn their ingenuity towards high yield organic farming like they do in the Netherlands, unless we can persuade the world that actual "sun grown in soil" is better than automated hydroponics.
Personally? We're increasingly turning to growing our own. Which I think is cool, and I think more and more people are doing that... but it somewhat skirts the re-employment issue.
It is getting disgusting. Recently they been trying to get pink slime reclassified as ground beef. The amount of chemical garbage already in food is just scary.
