As a software engineer, I would love to see all the tedious tasks people do all day replaced by technology. If having money is the only way to stay alive and I had a job, I would even pay higher taxes, just to let people do more of what they might love more (and what in the long run would benefit society in other ways). -- I guess, that this opinion is diametrical to current ideology.


The word you want in that last sentence is "diametrical", or perhaps "antipodal".


English is not my native tongue, so thanks for the suggestion. (Now that you mention it, I found both words in the dictionary.)
