What's this?

And technology makes another job obsolete. My grandmother was a librarian

In Manassas in the late 70’s.

I am not smart enough to know where the jobs to replace it will be, but I’m sure of two things

1. Ultimately this is a good thing and inevitable. Government intervention to stop it would be worse than just letting it happen organically.

2. There will be a lot of disruption in the economy, the culture, and the government as it happens. I truly hope we find a leader that can guide us. Based on our last 4 administrations, I have my doubts.
