Economy

Friesenheim retains a strongly agricultural economy. The sight of old drying racks for tobacco leaves brings to mind just one of the many crops that flourish in the gently warm climate of the alluvial riverside fields surrounding the village.

gollark: It also seems unlikely that we would suddenly jump from the current situation where a bit of stuff is automated and quite a lot isn't to everyone being immediately unemployed, so you can notice and do stuff about it in the interval. Restructure the economy for post-material-scarcity or whatever. No idea how that would *work* but oh well.
gollark: If you can make robots/AI/whatever do any work you want easily, I'm sure you could make a few to produce food and whatever without problems.

gollark: Our culture has such a bizarre obsession with hard work.
gollark: I don't see how replacing humans in jobs is a *bad* thing.
