Hey everyone! It's that time of the week again! Time to reveal some of the tracks that inspired me in writing RoboNomics. This week it's Chapter 10 -- a big, actiony chapter that leads into the part of RoboNomics during which shit really goes down.
As may be obvious from some of the songs that I've included this week, the protest against the Ontario government's bill -- which proposes to abolish unions in the province -- takes place. The logic behind the proposed legislation is the fact that because so many jobs have become automated, the members of unions in the province are organized around something that is obsolete -- human labour.
However, the protest doesn't exactly go smoothly for Andrea and her friends. Chris, the leader of their group and the person who fought them to hold the protest, is no where to be found. Thousands of people show up in front of the Ontario legislature. Those numbers prove too much for the little protest group to control, especially without their leader.
And then robots get involved in the chaos...

Don't forget to check out RoboNomics Chapter 10 when it's released on Monday, March 17 (St. Patrick's Day) at midnight EDT! Can't wait for you to read it!
