Advances in technology have always, always taken away jobs, but at the same time they've always created more. How much work is there for a skilled scribe in today's world?

We're too hung up on 'jobs'. Weren't we all supposed to have lives of luxury by now, working (and yes, working in some form is necessary to the human psyche) and socalising as we wanted while machines took care of the chores? A civilisation of craftspeople, real public servants, scientists and artists?

Technology can now let you see the faces that matter and get to know people ~wherever they or you may be in the world, is that worth tired hellos from a wage slave behind a checkout whom you may never see again?
