This is yet another reason ignorance doesn’t mesh
As we move towards the 2008 U.S. Presidential election, we’re going to hear more and more about the loss of manufacturing jobs. This is important – folk have to be able to eat. However, what the politicians aren’t talking about is the fundamental transformation going on in manufacturing and how that will impact citizens.
Why they don’t talk about it is a mixed bag – some are just ignorant or don’t care enough, others are being deceptive because they have other priorities or arrogantly believe that people are not able to deal with the subject. The next time the subject of manufacturing jobs comes up, ask people what those jobs will be like just 10 short years from now. We can’t wait until then to start dealing with the realities of Manufacturing 3.0.
