You may be right in the long term (and I agree with this), but there will be a transition period that may be painful for many people. The value created by most companies is very concentrated amongst employees -- that is, there are relatively few people who create the most value in companies. As technology gives these high productivity people more leverage and displaces low productivity workers (the majority), many people will be (and are) losing jobs. I don't know how long this transition period will last, but let's not pretend it's not happening.
