Somewhere along the way the U.S. became a nation of truck drivers
That’s what research conducted by National Public Radio, which recently mapped out the most common jobs in each U.S. state, has revealed. And as of last year, in a majority of states, truck driving is the most popular job category. The NPR interactive map shows how the landscape for employment has changed across the nation from 1978, when farmers, secretaries and machine operators ruled the roost, to 2014, when truck driving emerged as No. 1.

One has to wonder how long those jobs will be available.
It's a 50,000-pound semi. And, now it's self-driving
Self driving trucks are going to hit us like, well, a semi.
Automated farming: good news for food security, bad news for job security?
For countries in the industrial world, this growing automation probably means the continued decline of rural life. The issue of labour is even more important for the economies of the global south, where there are fewer urban job opportunities. In those countries, technologies that take labour out of the fields may undermine efforts to reduce poverty and enhance development.
Machines that even find the nipples.

Republicans aren't prepared for any of this. They believe science is a faith. I was just accused of that last night. That science is my faith. And asked, what do you do when science is proven wrong. How can you answer such a question? It doesn't make sense. Then you have Republicans who will mock the role of science. What does science have to do with self driving trucks, automating dairy farms, automating manufacturing. Technology is built on the foundation of science. For anti science Republicans, they are going to lose every way possible. Sorry about that. Full speed ahead.
The sad part here are all the right wingers who truly believe Trump will bring back jobs. My question to USMB Republicans is, "Can you describe and name the jobs?" Why bother asking. All they will say is "Oh the butthurt". It's not my butt that gonna get reamed.
