I’m not talking about manufacturing JOBS. Of course they are on the decline. Computer controlled machines are replacing humans in the manufacturing workplace. But the total manufacturing output grows every year (with possible recent Obama exceptions).

Is that a bad thing? If so, let’s outlaw the use of machines in manufacturing. And let’s go after ATM machines while we’re at it. How many tellers did they put out of work.

Times change. How big was the software industry in the 70’s? How about the cell phone business?
