You can’t protect workers from the forces of history and technology. Workers need to protect themselves. Get new skills, things nobody is projecting as being automated in the next 20 years, when in doubt learn how to run the robots.

Better yet, learn how to fix the robots. Tech support is a growing field, and not just in India.

Government schooling doesn’t meet the minimum requirements for thoughtful work, that is work that requires thinking.

We still teach as if it were the 19th century. The teacher lecturing students, summers off and bored students sitting at desks dreaming of something better.
