Pope: We have to say thou shalt not to an economy of exclusion and inequality

I think the pope might be right but for a different reason than he presently thinks.

The real problem in the past (like in the 1900s until the 1930s) that wealth was concentrated artificially in too few hands in the U.S. and Europe during those times. So, it took thousands and millions starving to death and two wars to change this dynamic in the U.S. and Europe. But, by the 1980s both Europe and the U.S. were back on this path of concentrating wealth into the upper classes and doing away by legal means with equality. Though there is still equality to some degree in education in the U.S. because of how much an education costs this is changing too in many states. Even though some U.S. States might be deciding to pay for a college education for all children in their states.

But, beyond that the real problem as I see it is technological innovation. In other words "Jobs are coming back from China, Viet Nam and anywhere else the labor is cheap and returning to the U.S. But these jobs are more like support jobs for robotic or computer technology that is now working in place of factory workers all over the world.

So, the real problem is that there will be less and less menial jobs that people can do with a high school education or less worldwide. And there will be just a few more college educated jobs in factories in management and support for the robotics and computer innovations. So, the real number of actual jobs will keep decreasing as the intelligence of robotics and computers increases.

So, when your smartphone is smarter than you are by the mid 2020s this is going to become a real problem worldwide and is starting to be a problem even now.

So, how are the people of earth going to be dealt with. Are they going to be starved out of existence because they cannot find a job anymore like animals? Or is there going to be some kind of world welfare state run through the United Nations to keep them alive?

We are living in these transition times now and the world is deciding by the decision of every person upon it whether people who don't have college degrees worldwide will survive or not.

So, yes. I agree. "We have to say thou shalt not to an economy of exclusion and inequality" or we will be creating nothing but starvation and wars and terrorists all around the world by excluding large groups of uneducated people or relatively uneducated people which likely will cause their deaths or at the very least their ill health.

If we exclude all these people and they die they aren't going to like us very much and their children who might not die likely will become terrorists against us at some point. So, what the Pope actually is saying is very wise. Now what will the world do with what he is saying?
