We CAN See The FUTURE

The "Crystal Ball vs. Denial??

Want to know what's really going on?  You have to go back in time, about 15 years.  That's when I bought Jeremy Rifkin's book The End of Work  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_End_of_Work.

I bought the book because it echoed what Peter Drucker taught in his classes 10 years prior.  The knowledge has been around, altogether, for more than 25 years!  Dont'cha think the politicians knew and have been busy "getting theirs" while keeping us Mushroomed?

Rifkin writes on page 288: "In a world where sophisticated information and communication technologies will be able to replace more and more of the global workforce, it is unlikely that more than a fortunate few will be retrained for the relatively scarce high-tech scientific, professional, and managerial jobs made available in the emerging knowledge sector.  The very notion that millions of workers displaced by the re-engineering and automation of the agricultural, manufacturing, and service sectors can be retrained  to scientists, engineers, technicians, executives, consultants, teachers, lawyers and the like, and then somehow find the appropriate number of job openings in the very narrow high-tech sector, seems at best a pipe dream and at worst a delusion."

The writer lays out what everyone in the Yin Yang Media scream for as a "serious discussion" of our future.  I highly recommend that every serious voter get and read a copy of this book before they vote.  You will understand why the Repoobs have grown so strong and have steadily waltzed us toward the twin-cliffs of Default and Fiscal Calamity.  Rifkin lays out in detail what he saw for our future in 1995.  You'll see why the Repoobs are silent on the subject; except to spread fear of Social Security and Obamacare.

The first decade of the 21st Century showed how easily the voters in this country can buy political lies and suffer succeeding economic collapses.  Let's wake up and make sure the second decade of this century doesn't dig us yet deeper into the morass.  Truth is not attractive, and quick-fixes are delusions.

Stay Vigilant!
