Bureaucracies are meant to cover specific parts of government, just like teachers cover different subjects. If you asked a science teacher to teach music, it wouldn't go very well. Bureaucracies help give insights that one person specializing in law might not think about. ]]> 2017-02-10 21:04:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183160 kroonrya000 https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183302 Technology is often helpful, but ironically since the government is such a large system, it is very difficult to upgrade machines, and having slower machines can slow down bureaucracies even more]]> 2017-02-10 21:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183302 niand0001 https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183354 If we have machines take over bureaucratic actions, I think we have a more efficient organization to solve problems and machines have a lower chance of making a mistake than humans.]]> 2017-02-10 21:06:24 UTC https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183354 alexisa000 https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183387 so we take away jobs that the poor can do to give some to middle class and upper class citizens to have. while the whole "go to school, graduate, and your chances of succeeding in life go up" is there, all this does is build an upside down pyrami....no an hour glass. this is the thing the show "incorporated" is trying to portray. that a separation of middle and lower class people would grow too much for society to handle .... disagreeing with emma's current statement. like the show shows this leads to a dystonian utopia or a false paradise for the people.]]> 2017-02-10 21:06:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183387 stromgar000 https://padlet.com/tammons1/ammons5th/wish/153183430 while yes, you can argue that the increase in robotics taking over the simple task jobs goes along with our society because we it gives more jobs to the skilled laborors, society needs those jobs. a lot of people who dont have the education or opportunity to get a higher job rely on those simple task jobs that are being taken over by robots.
