Thats the problem though. You seem to imply that it's just a matter of changing the skills of the workforce.

But thats not the discussion thats worth having I think, cause the real issue is whether that's even possible anymore.

I don't know if anything can be too capitalistic, but since uber is trying to get around normal legislation (taking the best from defining their drivers as freelancers and treating them as employers)

Not what I meant, but it is a much bigger discussion than Uber and ethics that involves concepts of basic income, which work can and cannot be automated, rewarding work that's not interesting, rewarding innovation, etc...

The article here confuse capitalism with ethics, and tries to defend one form of capitalism vs another (debate about medaillons).

Yes it's bigger which is why I was commenting on it since parent seemed to try and dismiss the essays claim by pointing toward some rational inconsistency.

At least that's how it read to me.
