I do believe that Obama legit thought it was a way for people to transition from blue collar work to white collar in an era where the US was clearly outsourcing the nasty stuff to china while holding the better jobs back for Americans. That has changed drastically with the advent of AI, and will only get worse.

Those of you who feel displaced from your profession, I hope you’ll begin looking at other ways to support yourselves in earnest, because no one is coming to save you. I’m a victim of our new reality as well, and fully understand that it’s adapt or live in a van down by the river. I haven’t figured it out yet. Good luck to all.
