Wouldn't that be nice? Yet somehow people still have to work three minimum-wage jobs to get by after having been made redundant by machines. Factory owners will only lower prices to drive the competition into the ground, once there's no competition, or they're price fixing together, they have no reason to eat into their own profits like that. Especially when it comes to necessities that people will have to buy anyway. Just think of ridiculously inflated medicine prices.

They don't have to they do that because they want a much higher standard of living and choose to live in highly competitive largely populated areas where goods are more expensive thanks to the laws of supply and demand.

>they have no reason to eat into their own profits like that.
Economy of scale, they aren't eating into their own profits, they are reaching a larger customer base by having better prices.

>Just think of ridiculously inflated medicine prices.
That is because of regulations and laws that make it harder to produce medicine with more incentive to post fake inflated prices that aren't even actually paid by the insurance companies and government insurance providers at the end of the day and also lets the companies have too much control over their competition.

Great to know that entirely removing yourself from society and going to live off the grid as a subsistence farmer is a serious alternative here. Capitalism offers nothing but choices!
>It doesn't because of economy of scale.
Yes, some diabetics will just choose to die instead. Freedom!

Anyway, that is all beside the point, which is that, under capitalism, automation does not lead to the liberation of the working class, but only greater enslavement. Fewer jobs means more desperate people means lower wages, so any gains from automation are more than compensated by a corresponding decrease in real wages. And with the ultimate commodification of art by entirely divesting it of human creative expression, workers are turned into nothing more than just another machine among the others.

>orced circumcision which is just pointless harmful genital mutilation
