Chapter 667
The contradiction between the development of productivity and the compatibility of jobs is a long-term problem.
In the Earth period, many similar situations happened: the large-scale application of automated equipment resulted in a large number of workers being laid off, and those capitalists who made money would not take their own pains. The hard-earned money goes to support laid-off workers for free.
A billionaire, if he is asked to take five million to do charity, in order to gain a good reputation, the billionaire may agree.
But if the rich man wants to donate most of his annual profits to support the poor, he will most likely oppose it.
In this case, how do these laid-off workers support themselves? They do not have enough technology to engage in more high-end industries, and the whole society does not have enough jobs. They have lost their source of income.
So the whole society naturally has insufficient domestic demand and overcapacity.
Without demand, commodity prices plummeted, and capitalists naturally went bankrupt.
This is the origin of the economic crisis and social unrest.
In order to prevent this phenomenon from happening periodically, the previous Earth civilization tried to forcefully create jobs. Robots are very good and the error rate is very low, but jobs cannot disappear. No matter how the technology develops, there must be someone in this service position, otherwise, the store will not want to open.
This method is widely used in low-end service industries and labor-intensive industries, like an unmanned bus, with an emergency driver, a conductor, and maybe A security guard created three positions at once, and the effect was not bad.
These occupations do not require any skills, and they can be started after a short period of casual training. The government forces a large number of unemployed people to arrange, which can save a lot of trouble.
This is how Earth civilization does.
At the end of the discussion, Captain Feng said: "This method of forcing intensive labor positions can stabilize the society and create a lot of jobs, but... it sucks, really!"
"Everyone, what's the era!"
Zhang Yuan stroked his hair with a move in his heart. This question was Interesting.
The main body of the new human civilization is the planned economy model. Most of the means of production are Public Ownership, and there will be no so-called economic crisis. Government departments also raise a large number of idlers.
But with a population of 1 billion, even a 1% unemployment rate is 10 million vagrants. This number is quite terrifying!
There are fewer people and not enough people. When there are more people, the competition pressure will increase, and it will be more difficult to manage. This is the reality in front of us.
"Furthermore, impossible requires that all the 850 million people born in the future be engaged in cutting-edge scientific research. Even if human beings become smarter, the various disciplines have developed so much in depth, and it has become more difficult. . Our society is still very difficult to achieve, all of which are high-end people."
On the other hand, the highest-end jobs for the new human civilization are limited.
Unreal Lab, the most high-end laboratory, currently has more than 5,000 researchers.
If the population expands six times, will it expand to 30,000?
Of course not, there is a lot of research, not the more the better. If there are too many people, bad things will happen, and it must be kept within a reasonable range.
According to Zhang Yuan's estimation, it is enough for Unreal Lab to expand to 10,000 at most, and there is no need to come again.
Some people think that “new illusory laboratories can be formed, and a competitive relationship can be formed.”
This program can indeed create a lot of high-end jobs, but two or three research groups can count. The above is a healthy competition. The establishment of ten teams to study the same large project is a waste of resources, and it is more troublesome to control and supervise.
"So after population expansion, the current population panic problem can be solved by a large margin, but it will inevitably produce various contradictions. How can this problem be solved?"
A population expert stood up and spoke, saying that they have carefully estimated that a population of 880 million to 1 billion people is a more suitable state of civilization, etc. Each position can fully compete, but not excessive competition.
"We really can’t create 6 times as many high-end jobs, and we don’t need low-end jobs, but the expansion is only the middle-level population. The rugby-type social model is a very stable existence, nothing I’m so worried."
"If long-term insufficient competition is not a good thing. Human beings are a kind of creatures that need external forces. Insufficient competition can easily lead to slack. This is also under the planned economic system. The main reason why the free trade currency system has not been abolished."
However, how to solve the low-end population of 10 to 20 million in the future is still a problem.
A variety of debates followed.
During the discussion, some experts quarreled on the question of "whether arranging the cashier in the store is beneficial to the new human civilization".
Some people think that "the low-tech work of looking at a store is better than doing nothing to eat social welfare", and some people think that if this phenomenon does occur, it will undoubtedly be a regression of society!
As a result, some people said that the nature of some staff in the community is actually no different from cashiers. In today's intelligent information technology, the number of these community staff can be cut by at least half!
Some people think, “In fact, there is no need to worry about low-end jobs. As long as you are willing to work, it’s a good thing. The development of level 4 civilization and all walks of life requires 1 billion people... But the macro level and the micro level At the level, the direction of operation is different. Our university needs to expand enrollment, and we can also extend compulsory education to relieve the pressure on the job."
It is noisy, and Zhang Yuan feels dizzy with all kinds of opinions. , Just want to sleep, he simply yawned and squinted his eyes.
"I really want to eat Lin Xuanxuan’s Golden Spicy Chicken Roasted Fragrant Rice Fort...Would you like to send a text message and ask her to make one?"
You don’t need to press your phone with your fingers. , After thinking about it for a while, the text message was sent out.
I vaguely heard Captain Feng patted the table, loudly said: "...The population base expands, the material conditions become better, and those who do not want to move forward will also increase! The division should be divided, it should be eliminated. We should be eliminated as soon as possible! We should adopt a more radical education model to improve the quality of the expert."
"Captain, you can’t say that. It's like two species...Use a virtual world Education..."
"Seventy-eighty-year-old lifespan, five-six hundred or even one thousand lifespan, aren’t they two species?"
"...Despise those What's wrong with the sinkers?"
"But there is no clear division of contempt areas! How to despise quantitatively? Good grades despise poor grades? Then I despise a large piece of it!"

"Sinkers are not people with poor grades!"
