future technology wiki Unemployment...is technology a possible culprit?  
You can self-check out not just at supermarkets, but even libraries now.  Plus every year, more retail is done online. Now as some places need less bodies so to speak, if you lose a job at such a place, and you're looking for more of the same kind of jobs wouldn't it obviously be harder? I was chatting with someone late last year, someone further in their career, and they told me that whatever one chooses to do, or whatever they are, from a sales associate to a computer programmer, that they should protect themselves by having attributes or skills that 1. aren't a dime a dozen and that 2. won't be done by a computer/robot in the forseable future. It's always been like that but it's a little faster with technology today.  One also needs to consider outsourced jobs, a job salary being undercut by an unemployed person willing to work for less, and what is feasible in the long-term.  Some jobs are immune ... you can't outsource a funeral parlor very easily, other's are gray areas. It can't be outsourced - but it's quite likely to be replaced by technology in the relatively short term. No reason robots can't do a lot of that work. Well, Costco now sells coffins. Coffins are the big source of money-making for funeral homes.
