Can American capitalism in its current form survive automation? What new economic system could be introduced that would work in this new world? (pic unrelated)

American capitalism in its current and past form will never be seen again unless we regress significantly. Automation will eliminate over half our population. Even if such a thing as UBI were to be discussed, it would not be "free". Nothing can or ever will be "free". The second low skill jobs are phased out, it's safe to call it a genocide.

The future is decades of schooling for the chance to be employed as a maintenance engineer for AI, the only true job, while everyone else lives in squalor off the fruits of the barren wastelands outside the AI-controlled zones. I've never seen Elysium.

They'll eventually implement auto replicating nano machines in our brain that slowly converts brain biological matter to a synthetic life form that is non hostile and can easily conform to the greater ai.

Reminder that the rich called for minimum wage and 40hr weeks to keep a communist revolt at bay. Reminder they arent doing that this time for UBI or even a 10 dollar minimum wage increase. Greed killed Capitalism will suffer the same downfall as Communism. Massive Political Corruption.

when everything is 100% automated, we won't need an economy because no labor was used to produce, no capital is necessary to pay for the production everyone will finally be free
Juan Richardson
Basic income would be a start, and direct robot taxes that would be calculated on basis of the profitability for the automation.
Angel Perez
What does it matter? Western civilization will collapse before total automation.

Less than 20 years.

Highly unlikely, considering that the number of wars,violent crime,poverty etc. have been down of decades. Societies have become more stable,productive and diversified in their labor.

Nope.

>Can American capitalism in its current form survive automation? Depends on what you mean by "capitalism."
To the Zionists who control the world and use human beings like work animals, things will remain the same. Just as when trucks and tractors replaced draft animals, the humans who once performed jobs will be eliminated.
This trend is why the Bilderberg-Davos crowd are always releasing reports claiming "ideal Earth population billions less." It's so they have cover for their plan to kill off much of the world's population.
If what you mean by capitalism is any of the what are effectively wage slaves, most those people are going to be killed - though indirectly, via war and famine and disease, so the animals don't recognize the Zionists are really doing the killing and rise up.
The rich have only ever tolerated the existence of the poor because the rich couldn't survive without them. Automation allows the wealthy to do what they've always wanted to do: kill the poor.

There wont be need to kill off people since global population will stop growing by 2050 and start steadily drooping form there according to most estimates.

Eliminate regulations and minimum wage and you'll get plenty of new jobs in new fields. Human desires and wants are endless but all the BS laws are preventing job growth in new sectors as no one wants to risk starting a business in a sector that isn't guaranteed to pay off.
Benjamin Sanders
Wars and starvation have been on steady decline for the last few decades along with poverty and violent crime trough. They seem to be particularly ineffective in historic terms then.

>Marketing and strategy
You're saying there aren't already computer algorithms out there being developed that can sell to any person far more effectively than you will ever be able to?
Andrew Williams
That's only a local minimum. The past century has seen the development of greater killing ability than has ever existed, and greater numbers killed in shorter periods of time as well.
The wars and death won't begin in earnest until the shift to sustainable automation has been successfully made, otherwise the Zionists risk killing off some people they might need.
