As sure that dangerous, boring and heavy jobs have been disappearing and there are more jobs in professions caring (health and education) and sectors dealing with information and knowledge.

You the conclusion must be accepted with reservation . The data always used to say one thing and its opposite, is a matter of searching and highlight the aspects that we want to strengthen , giving immense way extend the time series , for example . If you go back to the creation of the fire, we can also complete – and a huge sure! -. That technology has created more jobs than destroyed

All this without even entering the question of Work value
