I think the only two routes to go are technology or trades

everything in between is being computerized and outsourced for a higher 'profit'

dont know what will happen when the profiteers realize people no longer have money to buy their products, even after they have saved their money on human labor,,,,,,

And the people who benefit from the outsourcing gain jobs.




And profits are used to buy goods and services, which results in the demand for those goods and services, which results in job creation.

The issue of outsourcing is off topic, but since you brought it up, I'm going to reply.

that job creation doesnt help if it creates jobs in another country

Are human beings in other nations undeserving of jobs? Is unemployment a bad thing for all able-bodied adults, or is it only a bad things for able-bodied adults living within your own nation?

can the technology take the place of craftsmen

its not a matter of deserve, its a matter of reciprocity

if the people of my nation are the consumers lining the pockets of the sellers , it is reciprocal to create the jobs for those people so they can continue to contribute to those profits,,,

i saw this video and it brought back memories. i wonder how many young people today are willing to learn the "how it's done" by a master of the craft http://youtu.be/bdb1x2vQ2Z0

as a young man i began work at a transmission shop. the owner promised to train me as a builder. i was eager and really admired watching the old man put transmissions together. i started out removing, breaking down, cleaning,(then the owner would build it) and re-installing only one type of transmission. every car or truck that came into the shop with that particular type of transmission, i worked on it. i must have done about 30 of them and never built one. frustrated, i secretly found another job at a full service shop (not just transmissions) and went in to give my two week notice. i worked the first week, then on the second week the owner called me in and asked why i changed my mind about being a builder. i told him that he had lied to me and wasn't showing me how to build, but making me do all the hard and dirty work. he laughed and took me out to the shop area where he had several shelves of used parts. he would pick out a part and ask me what it was and where it went. i knew each part and where it went, except when he picked a part that didn't belong to the transmission type i had been assigned to work on. slowly a light came on in my head. by tearing down and cleaning each transmission i had become familiar with each part and what it was supposed to look like. i could tell when a part had failed and needed replacing. i knew how to build. i ended up leaving that shop, but i learned more than just how to build a transmission. i learned what an apprenticeship is

there is actually a shortage of tradesman for construction right now, (). Everyone has moved on to something else since the economy tanked.

i think the glass blowing link was taken off, so here's a venetian glassblower
