Like what? Growing pot? Manufacturing's NOT coming back. Anyone who thinks it can and will is delusional.
You sound like Obama bitching about ATMs. The modern American home is filled with things that eliminated jobs in the past yet there are still jobs. We no longer have to pay people to take out chamberpots or haul water to our house. The iceman no longer brings ice because, by God, my fridge makes it for me!
I’m not saying there won’t be pain or job losses. There will be big disruptions but there will eventually be plenty of work for everybody, they will just doing different things.
I know a lot of people that are making a lot of money growing pot. They been saying that the computer will be putting people out of work since the day they came out but there’s a lot of people making a good living and working on computers. In fact IT professionals were making such a good living that our treacherous government decided to bring in foreigners to knock them down a peg. They must have been getting too lippy. Time for payback now.
It isn't automation that is ruining our lives it is we let third world slaves build our junk.
Then the country will die.
