Interesting to compare this 'unprecedented jobs boom' with forecasts made in 2011: https://buzzmachine.com/2011/08/05/the-jobless-future/ https://buzzmachine.com/2011/08/05/the-jobless-future/ Jeff Jarvis said, "We’re not going to have a jobless recovery. We’re going to have a jobless future." Alfons wrote: "This is an unprecedented time in history, been a long time coming, but never the less, a not if but when phenomenon. I have been thinking, writing and talking about this for over 40 years, and was roundly ridiculed every step of the way. I told you so! Nice to see many people finally catching on. Socialism is the only way to mitigate the situation, there is no solution as far as I can see." Roland wrote: "today, global labor arbitrage moves meaningful work to India/China... increases in computational power, robotics, etc, reduce the amount of white collar and blue collar work in total...all western nations, esp ones which don't export raw materials, will have major declines in living standards. How to stop it? ... In ten years, it'll be virtually unstoppable" I wonder how these people feel about their past statements.
