Our countires leadership and the future of jobs
15 minute video.
Automation. Considering most of you are young adults, some even still in highschool, this is going to be a issue for you. Automation is going to fundamentally change the economy you find yourselves in as adults in this next few decades.
If our leadership isnt proactive, and our society isn't looking forward and staying ahead of the curve, our country will find itself in the middle of a massively growing unemployment crisis.
Look at our current political landscape. Promising to bring back coal jobs? Those jobs are gone and not coming back. The idea that we can draw the present to the past is foolish, yet its promised all the time.
The best part is, that nobody bats an eye.
It's going to be a question that must be addressed. Do we keep trying to hold onto the economic climate of the past? How do we move ahead to economic climate of the future? It may not be some drastic crisis, but it is going to be become and issue and quickly.

3 RepliesHm, well yes more and more things will become automated but i wonder how mich truely will. A common arguement (typically used when discussing minimum wage) is that fast food resturants will replace workers. But thats not a good arguement because the technology is already there, if it was possible to replace all the cashiers itd probably be done already. But lets discuss as if we had readily availbile extremely smart technology that say could interact full with people and could replace lots of jobs (like robots you see in movies). Well then you have a job shift, less low skill jobs (cashiers) more high skill (programming etc.). I think increased education will be crucial.
