    Default It looks like big societal changes ahead

    Kids are all of a sudden learning from home and this could prove that school isn’t necessary anymore at least in person.

    People are gonna start getting checks to live in on this post apocalyptic society.

    Student debts are being paused.

    Could it be that the coronavirus will open up the door for a big change in the system?

    Driverless cars are on the horizon and automation is becoming more and more. Even doctors are due to be replaced one day. People are now getting used to staying home. Most jobs will be at home in the future.

    Let’s face it guys. The school system is super antiquated. It doesn’t prepare you for the future world. It trains you to be a robot but we are already making our own robots. The future of school is online at home and it won’t cost thousands and thousands of dollars to get a degree.

    Most jobs out there are not necessary for society. And look at how many people do pyramid schemes and MLM stuff. If the government would just give people a check, nobody would do BS side hustle scams anymore.

    And we don’t really need waiters who just check on us when we’re eating. We don’t need cashiers. There’s so many jobs that aren’t truly necessary.

    This pandemic could start some new changes such as universal income, home schooling, and maybe universal healthcare. I think that this virus is real but is the excuse so that the establishment doesn’t lose face.

    I will say this is what a real protest/strike should look like. If people are ever fed up with corporations, the government, the status quo, or whatever let this be the example of how you throw a wrench in the system. Stock up hoard and don’t come out. Screw a million people marching in the streets. A million people staying home doing nothing is more effective.

    I agree, but I don't know what'd you do regarding the significant amount of people that legitimately live paycheck to paycheck, and would be in serious trouble missing just one of them

    Like Lambruh said, i made a thread like this but it was deleted after the update. This isn't the first thread OP has copied from me either. I don't expect it to be the last.

    I'm really hoping work from home takes off on a large scale, especially if there is a tangible uptick in productivity.
