Diggers

If you dig ditches for a living, and a robot replaces you, what can you do?  Certainly not repair robots. This requires quite a skill level quite beyond the dig.  You’re out. While it’s true automation creates new jobs, it is false those so replaced will qualify. 

The diggers of the ditch is not an asset class.

Heavy stirrings in this world are afoot, and they are out “to convert” you to the “true beliefs.”  Whose true beliefs?  Mine, of course.  These stirrings are in all Western countries, or more generally democratic countries where people can make decisions by vote.  The tools directed against the unbeliever arrive as words in print, social media, and television. There are also placards, T-shirts, and hats of all varieties. They are often profane, sometimes political, frequently delirious, but mostly sum to filth.

In fact, human nature is to emphasize, proselytize, and criticize for (you to) change. 

Everybody’s doing it, doing it, doing it,
Digging up the dirt and spewing it, spewing it,
Some say it’s false, other say it’s true,
But usually it's the poor target who's really screwed.

Like me, some of us can afford a change or two, probably just a tweak.  But it's those others needing a complete makeover, and we’re obliged and delighted to help, and help again. Thus, we note the nature of us all.
