Began and proliferated our transition to a tertiary economy that now, some specialist goods, pharmas and whiskies aside, produces fuck all we actually own.
And when AI takes over 90% of complex accounting and IT, what then? Life has never been better than to own a Turkish drug-den/illegal vape outlet barbers.
Not so much a nation of shopkeepers as one of services. Run by a treasury that lacks the bollocks to pursue the eligible taxation on mass retail that keeps so many (soon to be droid and drone) employees busy. And an abjectly defenceless one at that. We can’t even seem to staff carriers or purchase F35s correctly.
