If jobs are “lost” because robots are doing more work, why is it a problem that the population is aging and there are fewer in “working age”? Shouldn’t the two effects sort of cancel each other out?

As a general point, not 100% answering the question but is relevant to the idea of it.

This question has in its premise, I think, the assumption that those arguing for the corporations are arguing in good faith, and have good points to make, which is why an explanation is necessary.

But the reason it doesn’t make sense is because *they aren’t arguing in good faith.* They’re trolling, purposely muddying the water so they can continue to pay themselves while refusing to raise the minimum wage, for instance. Or blaming inflation for higher prices while they purposely raise the prices of medications so they can give themselves big bonuses.

Don’t believe them.
