[QUOTE="Frederick, post: 3004516, member: 17825"] I think people underestimate the reality of modern manufacturing and construction as well. Far less people are required for tasks. Less managers, less employees. Office-work especially was decimated by the introduction of computer technology. Manufacturing has been cut by more than half by automated robots and so on. even service jobs like Mcdonalds no longer require as many employees as they once did. The reality is that sooner or later, we're going to end up supporting a lot of folks on welfare and taxation. Some of the jobs, the good-paying ones especially, are not going to be here forever. eventually, it's not going to be enough to work hard or have a good skill. you'll just be obsolete. Just like the Horse. [/QUOTE]
