14. Likely going to get worse

A lot of the white collar work that the elite pushed people to gravitate toward, often taking out loans (sure student loans aren’t as big elsewhere in the world but it’s still a problem), are on the way out.

We’ve created a fragile global economy based on pushing paper and numbers around. These are more ripe to be automated than many jobs requiring physical labor.
