RE: Maybe People Are Grasping Onto Technological Unemployment

The opposite of progress is Congress. Congress, to me, is like an accounting department. They only know as far as what they're calculating. Senior leadership in any organization is similar. The "bottom line" is omnipresent in the managerial world. Someone must explain to them that unemployment instead of technological advancement might not be the best option.

I'll be leaving my job in a couple of years because where I work is projected to permanently shutdown. Management decided to advertise the shutdown years in advance. They've set aside money and resources to provide training and financial support to its employees and communities. I'll be unemployed soon, but I'll also have new trades and certifications to keep me employed at the next place.

You don't have to be unemployed; you just need to assume you can lose your job at any point. Yeah, it's a paranoid approach, but I've got a family to support.
