>How is that “creepy”?

I don't know. I just felt it was like that, so said it. Can't really explain it. Gut feel.

>Now, what happens to those increased wages when the demand for workers is gone?

>That’s right. They collapse.

Yeah. It happens. All the time. Deal with it.

Cycles, dude, cycles.

Business cycles. Ups and downs.

Power cycles (between various power groups). Ditto.

You know, like our old pals, Xerxes, Darius, Cambyses, Alexander, Attila, Caesar, Ashoka, Chandragupta Maurya, Genghis Khan, Akbar, Timur, Napoleon, Hitler, Cortes, and many more (in no particular order).

Horse-drawn carts. Cars. ICE cars. EVs. Age of sail. Steam ships. Abacus. PCs. Mobiles.

You get the drift. It's called progress. Not so sure. But it is what it is.
