I've been saying this for a while now. Being in the auto manufacturing business and seeing automation and modularization take 2/3 of the jobs away from a machining line, we're headed down this path like a locomotive. It is inevitable---tablets instead of waiters/waitresses, touch screens/self checkout instead of cashiers, automated pack/fill at fulfillment centers, self driving vehicles---the service industry is going to take a hit next, and we're going to have a massive unemployment problem for which there is no solution.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
