I mean look how great things have been since then, since the great depression?

If we're already in it, we're already one step closer to the post depression era utopia for the 30s and 40s.

You've made a strange comparison though because the great depression had little to do with technological advancement?

It wasn’t that deep a comparison. I just liked the imagery of people lining up for work outside “Mechanical Turk Centers”.

It’s more a nod to the 25% unemployment of the Great Depression.
