  1. You missed it. Trump, like every politician, wants manufacturing jobs -- like those at Intel. The average Joe is quite unsuited for intellectually demanding jobs. They would PREFER routine jobs -- so long as they are not laborious. In today's world, teamsters drive over-the-road trucks with so many power enhancements that women can do so. (Power brakes, power steering, comfy cabins, mobile Internet, etc.) The same dynamic has taken over the American farm. Air conditioning, GPS micro-guidance, radio, laptops, etc. Our nation simply CAN'T export its farming sector, its steel sector, semi-conductors. You can't build an economy based on authorship, podcasts, music and performance art -- as nice as these things are to the mind and soul. The assembly lines of 1936 are gone from Detroit. Just ask Packard. Toyota has a factory in Japan that runs with its lights out. No human is necessary until something breaks. BTW, you'd be surprised how many trust-fund kids can't spell Europe. Chat things up with Jay Leno and his All Stars. We can say this, if Kennedy fails, in fifty-years every grandchild will be on the Internet selling snake-oil pills for the over-weight. Some of this trend is showing up in Science -- as grifters and fraudsters are now overwhelming these fields. In the days of Einstein, physicists were but a fringe niche even in universities. These days, kids with IQs of 110 think they can produce serious science. They can't. Revolutionizing insight and thought will always be cognitively demanding. So, your Adams progression can never hold. It's aspired to, but yet, quite unachievable. It's like having every gal a Hollywood movie beauty.
