So what happens when every economy becomes developed? What happens when we can't rely on the existence of low wage workers?
What happens? Well I suppose the economy collapses and the proletariat rise up and usurp power, or something fantastical.
What’ll more likely happen is we’ll further automate repetitive low skill tasks, and / or start making more durable goods, or otherwise ingenuity our way forward.

Time isn't that complicated a concept.
But I guess it's really a question about post-scarcity economics, and whether they're possible?
I’m more optimistic. Not really sure I have much to base my optimism on, but oh well.
