This is the wrong mindset. It's not about "retaining" or "keeping" the jobs we have today. Give them away ... they're already dead.

Success will require creating entirely new categories of jobs for which today there is no description. This is the future.

At one point in the 20th century, "computer" was an occupation, not a product. Eventually "computer administrator" became a service job. Soon, that too will disappear.

This is progress, folks. But do not confuse progress with pleasure.

In America, we make money the old fashioned way. We earn it.
