    Yah, that is great for the economy, skilled people being wasted. And blue collar ones can live like the homeless. Oh no, the horror.

    Seriously, that is one of the dumbest comments I’ve read on Lemmy.

        By blue collar do you mean, what exactly? Trades? That will go down quickly, you can’t feed all tradesman on the need of the richest few who remain.

        Factory? Suddenly all the previously white collar office jobs and the current factory workers will be competing for them. Do you think that will make the salary go up or down?

        Agriculture? Most office workers are stuck in the city. Who can will move and they will be competing for those jobs too, so you think the salaries there will go up or down?
