The body/mind they expected to be able to rent out has literally no value as an asset. Agreed. I wonder if the concept of job makes sense anymore.

  Job will still make sense for a while, but as society we need to prepare better for the future. The world is changing and we're still debating if our youth should get less education and benefits or if we should let in more immigrant so we can compete on labor prices on the global market. That's so short sighted! That train left long ago, and it was pointless to try to board anyway. If the ruling elite would stop for a second being such assholes toward anyone, treating everybody not up the chain as 'resources', maybe they could focus to be competitive in the world of tomorrow. Most unskilled/unqualified job will just vanish overnight at some point in the near future, and then what? we're still under-educating our youths. industrial automation, robotics and artificial-x will be the field that will drive innovation in the next 20 years. if your country is still not pushing for them to be in the curriculum of everyone, prepare to be facing loads unemployment problems down the road. avoidable problems, dare I say.
