Many would question that, but if you think it through it probably even higher. Somehow we manage to automate and industrialize pretty much everything, yet everyone still have a job. Previously women stayed at home, removing half of the workforce, and that still worked out fine.
I had a client, they sell cheap furniture. They really didn't need me, because they really didn't need all the IT infrastructure they've built up. Rather than attempting to sell me new cheap ass plastic garden furniture every spring, how about they just sell me really high quality stuff once? Then I don't need to shop with them for the next 25 years. That would save a lot of work right there.
