Not to worry. These are just buggywhip jobs, you know, IT, things like that, obsolete industries. Who cares if companies sell out, as long as they make a buck? Those displaced workers can always find jobs in The Next Big Thing (just don't ask what that is) that we'll surely invent now (just don't ask when that will be). Besides, it's their own fault that they were lazy and chose the wrong career or didn't start their own business. Let them work at Mac's, screw 'em.

You missed the fabulous argument that the nation is creating thousands of news jobs.
Nevermind that the BLS statistics put the job growth in hotel maids, bartenders, and nursing home bed pan changes or the jobs you'd rather not have your children aspire to.
