"Layoffs too often became permanent, not part of the business cycle. And these changes didn't just affect blue collar workers. If you were a bank teller or a phone operator or a travel agent, you saw many in your profession replaced by ATMs and the internet," President Obama said at a campaign event in Kansas.

ATM machines have been around since the late 1970s.

The commercial internet has been with use since the early 1990s.

Why didn't they destroy jobs during the Reagan and Clinton administrations???

I've learned one concrete thing in my 52 years on this planet. Winners take responsibility for their mistakes and loser blame others.

Obama is the biggest loser I have ever seen.

The magnitude of his idiocy is breathtaking.

Maybe the country will finally learn that affirmative action doesn't work...

What article? I want a valid example of Obama blaming our job losses on technology. This wasn't one of them.

0bama is correct. The US economy is increasingly being displaced because of modern technologies. Everyone of us, in order to stay on top, MUST stay appraised of their respective fields by methods of licensing, certifications, recognized academic diplomas and frequent training classes.

For those that sat on the couch watching TV, they are 20 years behind the times.

And whose fault is that???

The first thing you said is wrong.

The last thing you said is right.

Innovation creates opportunity. The problem is that MOST Americans are not prepared for the opportunity because they are trapped in a government monopoly school system that is completely incapable of preparing them for the world in which they live.

To each, their own just rewards.

The first thing you said is wrong. The last thing you said is right.

So, we have a bridge of compliance on some level. Now, explain what "first thing" ...

Obama is incorrect in blaming technology for the rotten state of the economy. The rotten state of the economy rests squarely on Obama's shoulder's as well as George Bush's and all other big spending, micro-managing politicians.

Everyone of us, in order to stay on top, MUST stay appraised of their respective fields by methods of licensing, certifications, recognized academic diplomas and frequent training classes.

100% correct.

For those that sat on the couch watching TV, they are 20 years behind the times.

Also 100% correct.

The new world requires that people continually learn and upgrade their skills.

If someone is more interested in watching the boob tube, versus learning something new, then it's their problem when their future collapses in on itself.

I LOVE my work. I live for my work. My work is my passion, People who only work so that they can go bowling on Tuesday nights are in big trouble. And it's their fault.
