Ultimately this is good because the people let go will surely go on
to innovate the next technology.

Let me guess...You have a secure income.

No income is secure. In a competitive marketplace, if you cannot deliver you are out through the door unless of course you work for the govt. I find it appalling that conservatives have this socialistic fetish of forcing others to pay higher wages to its workers. It is irrational and stupid. American workers have to be competitive with the rest of the world. America is a land of opportunities and a lot of people come here for those opportunities. As long as those people are not relying on the welfare state, they can come in and earn a decent living. If American workers cannot compete, they can do something else. This is straight forward Adam Smith, that I am ashamed that most conservatives have not read.
