I 
'd at the quote, but the reality is quite sad - that people believed any of this stuff.
This one strikes a chord with me & I hope it does all throughout the USA and they oust all of these a-holes.
By education, I'm one of the guys trained up with the knowledge on how to streamline & improve and then automate manufacturing processes in order to reduce labour costs. I REALLY don't like the displacing human jobs part of that, so, I don't do it for a living even though I'd be great at it. The only way I'd consult on things like that is if the deal was that I could re-allocate labour to different roles to add value, not get tons of people fired. Or at worst find them alternate employment outside of the company - not just eliminate jobs for the sake of bean counting. Further, I've been a member of a few labour unions and am right now. My father is the local chapter President. So, as much as this article makes me laugh it makes me mad. I hope it makes America mad enough to kick all of these jerks to the curb.
