Work To Consume Addendum

There are over four million truck, taxi and Uber drivers in the U. S. Who will pay for their sustenance when auto-drivers take over? Neither the Obama administration, the incoming Trump team or the congress appears to have a clue about the oncoming fracturing of the present model. The frustrated working classes are the initial victims of the trend and Trumpism, Brexit, nativism and other populist movements are the result of that frustration.
Recently a friend reassured me that the market system could cope and used the buggy whip to autos example. Problem: Both of those industries were labor intensive and only required a redirection of that labor.
