This is the same argument that has been made at every Industrial Revolution. And not even industrial revolutions, just jumps in productivity.

When the jobs went offshore, all the Republicans and union democrats made this argument. And now Trump is supposedly an asshole for reshoring, bc a) those jobs that were lost are now shit jobs, and b) the productivity we lose reshoring isn't worth it.

You see the jobs leaving the same way republicans saw jobs leaving
