Grocery store checkers are on strike in SoCal due to management
cutting their health benefits. Jobs such as these, that have been
largely automated by new technology, are destined to disappear at some
point in the future. What do you foresee as the road to employment
for displaced workers such as these, former Boeing workers, etc. in
the future western world? It's going to be necessary for them to find
new skill sets that don't exist elsewhere at lower rates, I suppose.

While I don't know what will happen to today's displaced workers, I think
that the fundemental strength that the US has over many of its competitors
is the ability and willingness of its workforce to change and adapt.
