Reinflate the economy with what?
You've been posting/linking a lot recently to discussions centered on the ever increasing pace of technological advancement allowing for the automation of work and the resulting concentration of capital/means of production in the hands of the few and mass unemployment. I was wondering your thoughts on the 3d printing/maker bots, which also leverage technological advances, as a counter-trend to the concentration of capital? Will we close all the robot clothes factors because we can print all our shirts at home?
I find it unfortunate that this list of papers includes nothing by Nicholas Agar. I would recommend his latest book.
