Comment on A Review of Graeber's Essay on “Bullshit Jobs” (2013)parent

Comments

One of the major points of the "basic income" movement is that technology is supposed to let us work less. In this case, Dentist B could just leverage the knowledge of other dentists as posted on the internet. Or we would devise more effective professional development programs. Or Dentist B would quit altogether, and we could build remote dentistry technology, allowing Dentist A (and others like her) the ability to service far more patients. Etc. etc. etc.
