Then you have a choice.

Option 1. Halt scientific and technological progress and be robbed anyway because if capitalists do not get more money out of tech they are getting it out of making you work more hours for less money.

Option 2. End capitalism.

I vote option 2

Option 3. Get a job as part of the 5% of the population still employed in serving the various security apparatuses protecting the rich fucks -- you could be a soldier, cop, or government official.

Better to be part of the boot than be the poor fuckers getting stepped on, right? You can sleep easily knowing you have it slightly better than the other 95% of the underclass.
