    mechanization may not but venture capital corporationism might.

    Someone will “invent” Uber for plumbers and gardeners and now the trades all work for $4/day while the CEO graciously only accepts a $200,000,000 bonus that year.

      Not that capitalism will do ot better, it will just find a way to pay less. And use automation as a scapegoat. “CEO did not rob you, algorithm did”.
