&gt; This is literally more than 20% unemployment in less than 5 years<p>First of all - what?  It&#x27;s not 20%, nor is it happening in 5 years...  Neither of those numbers make any sense.<p>Secondly, accuracy aside, the same arguments were made all through the 70s, 80s, and 90s about manufacturing automation.  And guess what, those jobs are gone now, but society didn&#x27;t crumble.<p>It&#x27;s not like his is all brand new people - it&#x27;s happened over and over again for the past 200 years.  Read your history, and realize that we will repeat it.
