What was he wrong about?
The premise that was quoted is wrong. The idea that immense capital is replaceable by low skill labor is not is pretty foolish.

Post it. I will read it. I am always looking to grow. To me the facts of this matter is that cheap unskilled labor is always available in a global economy. The average uneducated laborer has to compete against the world, which wasn't the case 100 years ago. So that idea that that auto company owner needs the auto company worker is a false premise. He will make his automobile in the most efficient manner possible. If unions raise the price of producing it in his/her current factory they will simply move the factory, which is exactly what happens. But I would love to read whatever it is you think will change my whole way of thinking.
So then Wrangor, why do we blame the low skilled laborer for not having a job?
Even in your model here, the automobile is made by laborers and not the capitalist
I am not sure of your question. Who is blaming anyone? Have I blamed someone? I tend to avoid the word 'blame'. I just try to operate in reality. In reality there will always be people in power. It is a constant through the history of our time. Some people are smarter, better, richer, etc... and they will have more power. Creating a false paradigm that attempts to shift that power is fruitless and counterproductive IMO. Better efforts would be spent creating a system that prepares our workforce to compete for jobs in our new world wide economy.
You aren't but jhmd is, as are the rest of the pseudo libertarian set who believe that any able-bodied person who doesn't have a job or a higher paying job is lazy and gaming the system for free shit

Tony Stark is the only capitalist who builds his own robots. The rest use labor.
You're creating a false dichotomy between American capitalism and socialism. There are more choices.
You don't read good. Read gooder.
