Yes, and the HR reps will become the government mandated slave drivers of the 21st century. “Human resources” is the insidious term that reduces all labor to the same relevance as cattle, to either be milked, or slaughtered, at the whim of the employer.

The antidote to that employment murder-fest is the black and gray markets of the world. Why waste your talents as a slave, when you can profit from your own creations?

Of course, plenty of the uber-republicans, wall street concern trolls, and obfuscating liberal patent trolls lurking here on FR will wail about how thinking and innovating on your own is such a terrible idea.

So I ask this: why haven't we seen the genius of Edison, Ford, Carnegie, Rockefeller, Tesla, Westinghouse, or for that matter a Gates, Jobs, Wozniak, or any other great minds or innovators pop up in the 21st century?

They are too busy feeling guilty about wealth redistribution.
