Yeah service jobs haven't budged much. Except for automatic checkout, kiosks at the airport, that touch-panel at McD's, and so on. But < 2% of Americans anyway

Yeah service jobs haven't budged much. Except for automatic checkout, kiosks at the airport, that touch-panel at McD's, and so on. But < 2% of Americans anyway work in agriculture. Down from 98% a century or two ago. And US population grew by what, 50% in 30 years? But jobs by 25%. Manufacturing jobs dropped steadily as a pct of population. Because, automation? It's often repeated that automation just allows people to get better jobs running the robots. Trouble is, 2 people run a robot that replaced 200. Just ask Detroit how much automation benefitted jobs.
