Ever Shrinking Job Market - Part 8 - Population Growth

Have you ever joked with your coworkers saying “Working Harder, or Hardly Working?” If you watched my video series on “The Ever Shrinking Job Market”, you most probably guessed what I’m about to say: Automation; plus: Computers, Endless Storage and High Bandwidth, instant communications! We may produce more in less time, but I don’t know if we really work harder than our parents or grandparents did. Technology has just made doing our jobs easier so we can produce more. This was observed throughout the industrial revolution. I just question when I hear either the left or right talk about this… There’s more to our increase in productivity than meets the eye.
