You can post a long wall of text but the actual claim is that FUTURE DISRUPTION due to globalization and automation will destroy existing jobs faster than new jobs that the displaced workers can move into can be created. Please respond to the actual subject of discussion in the future.


This has always been the claim, and it’s been historically proven false.

The book quote provides a way for you to understand for how long this claim is made (with an exemple from the 18th century), and yet here we are.


Presuming that the 200 years of short history is a blip. We're still far from automating away many tasks, especially social ones.
