Man, I'm working out of an office in an industrial area in New Delhi, India. Literally across my office is a scrap metal dealer. He has about a dozen guys literally hammering metal to flatten it storing it. This is work that can be done in minutes by a simple machine. But he has 12 people doing it because it's likely cheaper or because he doesn't know that a machine like that exists. This is happening all across the world and no one is willing to address it. People are angry because there is no "real work" left for them anymore. Even in startups around me, I see so many jobs that don't need to exist. We're just "creating work" by adding jobs that don'tn need to exist, or refusing to adopt technology. The way the world is right now, something had to give. Trump is just a symptom of that. |
