> Brynjolfsson and McAfee are not Luddites. No, but you try to force that argument by calling your article "How Technology Is Destroying Jobs". I don't see any citation in the article doing the same. They just matter-of-factly state what is happening and it's the author of the article trying to somehow convert that into a Luddite case. I find it fascinating how this kind of sentiment is often uttered by Americans. Other western countries have long accepted the fact that we should better put the rewards of technological progress into a social system that at least takes care of the people who cannot anymore contribute to the workforce. In the US, the delusion of full employment for everyone as part of the fight against evil socialism seems strong as ever. I suppose it works as a good scare.
