Your jump at the chance to call people on unemployment saps discredits everything that you say. Try adding something with substance next time if you are going to participate.
It is lucky for you that you have gained all of these skills. There is something to be said for those who take the time to learn how to work in multiple fields instead of specializing, especially in these times. There is still something more to be said for those who learn to be self sufficient. But your lack of empathy for those who have not had the luxury of having been raised by these standards shows your lack of skill in yet other equally important aspects of life and community. You may yet have to depend on these folks one day to survive and blasting them down now does nothing to further your own further success.

I agree that if you look at a certain sector you will see job loss. But someone designed those robots and had to manufacture them. Eventually they had to be installed by humans.
Computers.. Internet... I think if someone pulls the numbers the information age easily outpaces the car manufacturing industry. Intel with it's 80k workforce outnumbers ford at 20k employees.... Not to mention Nvidia, Google and even the biggest player Microsoft.
Off topic. The pic you produce is Ford making Rolls Royce engines in Britain.edit on 11/25/2012 by staple because: (no reason given)

At this point, I'm willing to put anything in my pocket but I'll have to do some sewing first.
Good thing I know how.
