People working in factories could be described as “not having a meaningful life”.

Living a meaningful life is a choice left up to the individual. What are most people going to do when we automate everything ?

A lot of people in the rust belt want those factory jobs back, because they were proud to support themselves through work and derived personal fulfillment from it. And they vote, and we know who most of them voted for last time...

If people could just change their minds about this, they would have done it by now.
