Under capitalism, a lot of the time, highly dangerous jobs are also highly paid. Kind of a balance that the individual decides to engage with. Same idea behind getting an advanced degree in STEM or law. I think of my job by example, I’m a power plant operator at a large combined cycle plant. No fucking shot I’d be doing this if the pay wasn’t good. I’m around explosive and deadly hot shit all day.
Thats a hilarious way to tell me you have no idea what you’re talking about. Regarding my position, apparently yours or the topic at hand. Sorry I didn’t reply sooner I just went through notifications I’ve been sitting on for months. Hospitals and emergency locations have backup generators, correct. Now tell me how they work and WHO operates and maintains them 24/7… Tell me how Cuba is doing with consistant rolling blackouts, everyone’s fine, right? Where did you get the median 88k number for power plant engineer and where did you get the median salary for programmers being 130k? I promise the former is way low and the latter is way high. I can provide sources if you want. You act like there is a magic wand that can just remove tens/hundreds of millions of jobs because they aren’t people dream jobs. Thats the only way communism could work? It would require automation to a unbelievable degree? By what medium would that automation even be achievable? I also can’t possibly imagine a job like mine being automated before a job like yours.
