but this isn't a problem, unless people refuses to adapt and change to face this new economic reality.
There's something to be said about lack of up-skilling programs funded by the govt, but why does the responsibility of one's life and financial wellbeing fall onto the govt, rather than themselves?
On the other hand, brexit was a disaster, and is just pouring salt into the wound.

If 45% of a country's adult population are somehow unable to "adapt to the new economic reality" then this is definitely a policy problem and not just a matter of "personal responsibility". > why does the responsibility of one's life and financial wellbeing fall onto the govt, rather than themselves? What is a government for if not that?
