The plan which i adopted, and the one by which i was most successful, was that of making friends of all the little white boys whom i met in the street. as many of these as i could, i converted into teachers. with their kindly aid, obtained at different times and in different places, i finally succeeded in learning to read. when i was sent of errands, i always took my book with me, and by going one part of my errand quickly, i found time to get a lesson before my return. i used also to carry bread with me, enough of which was always in the house, and to which i was always welcome; for i was much better off in this regard than many of the poor white children in our neighborhood. this bread i used to bestow upon the hungry little urchins, who, in return, would give me that more valuable bread of knowledge. i am strongly tempted to give the names of two or three of those little boys, as a testimonial of the gratitude and affection i bear them; but prudence forbids; —not that it would injure me, but it might embarrass them; for it is almost an unpardonable offence to teach slaves to read in this christian country. it is enough to say of the dear little fellows, that they lived on philpot street, very near durgin and bailey's ship-yard. i used to talk this matter of slavery over with them. i would sometimes say to them, i wished i could be as free as they would be when they got to be men. "you will be free as soon as you are twenty-one, but i am a slave for life! have not i as good a right to be free as you have? " these words used to trouble them; they would express for me the liveliest sympathy, and console me with the hope that something would occur by which i might be free. how do the last two paragraphs contribute to the central idea of this passage? they show that life for children is often more difficult than for adults. they show that douglass is smarter than most boys his age. they demonstrate how desperately douglass longs to be free. they demonstrate that douglass is not willing to risk anything to learn to read.

They demonstrate how desperately Douglass longs to be free.

explanation:

because i the point in view is between characters

yes as the core issue is an ever increasing majority of human workers   will become permanently unemployed as ever cheaper ever more intelligent automated machines inevitably replace more expensive human workers with each passing year.

economic growth now and in the future requires that fewer jobs are created for human workers. this is the desirable inevitable consequence. the automation of the jobs of human workers is the most profitable economically productive activity on the planet.

so as a global society we need to have a plan to deal with this inevitable change.

automation has been, is and will always be a friend to human society if human society on a global basis is prepared to deal with the inevitable consequences.

what is key is that automation killing all jobs is only a matter of when not if.

the real question is can we get past the now invalid assumption that most humans can work for a decent wage going forward.

i spent my working career increasing automation and increasing efficiency. this consequently reduces the hours worked by humans while increasing the output economic goods and services at an ever decreasing price.

why not have ever cheaper ever more intelligent automated machines create the vast majority of required economic goods and services as opposed to human workers?

why not have most human workers working less and retiring earlier?

there is much more to life than working forever.

fortunately, automation has been going on for decades and will continue as an irreversible process as ever cheaper ever more intelligent automated machines permanently replace more costly human workers.

i write this answer for the people that have an open mind and are not living in the past this is what i feel most effectively deals with the tractable issues that automation creates.

the question at hand is how we deal with automation going forward as a society.

automation is only a threat because society has yet to acknowledge automation is happening let alone effectively a having a plan to address it.

a conservative libertarian free market idea where individuals choose what economic goods and services are produced in the free market as the free market supply will respond to free market demand. this is not a centrally planned communist economy.
