Yes that's often mentioned. But the human cost is a percent of what old-style factories employed
Sure factories employ skilled labor. But very few. And what are unskilled laborers supposed to do?
American has 30M folks who's employment has descended to service industry (teller, cashier, food service). They can't all be retrained as Engineers, even if we needed 30M more Engineers which we don't.
