All hype aside, in the next decade where will more US jobs be lost, to foreign labor, or to machines?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:For starters there are jobs. This is a good job market right now. The thing is they are shit jobs. And there will without a doubt be more lost to foreign workers. We haven’t even started to tap Africa yet. They will make 100 pairs of pants for a bag of rice. We would already be doing it if there was a (safe) infrastructure to be doing it. Once they can provide reliable energy to power the sewing machines and a safe way to get goods in and out your pants from Walmart will be made in the Congo. And then your TV will be made in the same place your t-shirts are made now. Sabotage….. “The word “sabotage” appears in the beginning of the 19th century from the French word “sabotage”. It is sometimes said that some workers (from Netherlands for some, canuts from Lyon for others, luddites in England, etc.) used to throw their “sabots” (clogs) in the machines to break them, but this is not supported by the etymology” So thinking the machines will replace you is a very old idea and history has proven it as a stupid one. But this goes back to education. You need to teach the populace how to make, program, and repair the machines. In the end people would be better off if their jobs were replaced by machines. That assumes that there was some sort of national income and people had access to the needed training to build, program, and repair machines. You might replace a bunch of truckers. Brakes and tires still need to be repaired and replaced.
