I think you are wrong on lower wages jobs. What happens when one machine can produce everything? (Just to extreme example). Rather the society has to understand and support paying everyone better rather than classify people as not worthy of wages. That's a tactic to make workers blame each other. Rather than understanding nearly everyone is being underpaid.

I'm sorry if I was unclear about the lower wage jobs things. I meant that rather than trying to compete with third world countries for low wage jobs (which I believe we will always lose since they're always going to have more people who are willing to do more for less pay than our citizens can afford to do), we should focus on improving the types of jobs that we have and train/educate our citizens at doing those.
I'm not disagreeing with any of your points, btw. I think large corporations will act as inhumanely as necessary to increase their profit margins because well... that's what we created them to do.
