The economic effects of technological advancement is being understated. There is a domino affect that is causing greater issues than is reported. It was stated that 3 million truck drivers would be out of a job with self driving trucks. That leads to 3 million+ meals not being eaten at truck stop cafes. This leads to lay offs of college students supporting their college education through waiting tables. This leads to more people unable to educate themselves for the new tech jobs.
