Yeah my point was that the IR caused a shift in jobs, but it was a net


creator of jobs because it enabled people to build a lot of stuff...which still took people. The jobs were different from farming, but still basically physical and easily adapted to.

Technology is simply making jobs go away at a faster pace than new technology support jobs are created. And the new jobs require vastly different skill and knowledge sets.
