On: The bullshit-jobs thesis may be bullshit

[refurb]

Brought to you by capitalism or at least funded by governments who get their dollars from capitalist systems.

Of course research at some point involves the economy and therefore the economic system that happens to be dominant. Most countries have little use for Dollars by the way, preferring their own currencies.

Their citizens have little use for dollars. Their foreign exchange reserve hoards them.

The American usage of "dollars" as a synonym for "money" when the topic is not specifically a dollar-using country is just nationalist bullshit.

“Happen to be dominant.” You mean the ones that haven’t failed?

And this may surprise you, but plenty of country still use “dollars” that aren’t American. But you already knew that.
