According to a recent report by the BLS, over the next decade 10 types of industries will be phased out of the economy and deemed no longer viable or profitable. Why you ask? Well, for the most part it is because these are industries with jobs that can either be performed by a computer or outsourced to another country where labor is cheaper, thereby making people-our own human resources- the obsolete entity that no longer serves a purpose or function in these specific roles. Why hire someone to perform a job that a computer can do in half the amount of time and better, with no backtalk? Why pay someone to complete a task if it can be outsourced and done at a cheaper rate, but of the same quality?
