Have we had an artificial work society for decades?

What have economists been saying about planned obsolescence and the depreciation of all of the consumer garbage?

I am a native English speaker with, what I believe to be, a quite competent brain when it comes to comprehension but there is basically nothing in this post which contains any meaning to me...

How could we have had an artificial work society for decades when we don't even yet have AI?

What have economists been saying about 'planned obsolescence'? Or about 'consumer garbage'? You asked the question as if you hold the answer, so where is that answer?

Why did you post a link to some random no-one on another forum writing a load of barely intelligible nonsense? A random no one with a string of kooky assertions, like 'GDP = Grossly Distorted Propaganda"... :scratch: What exactly were you trying to achieve with that, shall we say, citation?

Your whole post is absent any information whatsoever.

Fine I won't waste my time trying to explain since I have communicated with plenty of other people who did not seem to have trouble. I have used a number of handles over the years.

Find someone else to entertain yourself by bitching at.
