A while ago I heard a futurist say that if you wanted your kid to make money in the future, they should pursue a creative career. He expected technology jobs to go the way of manufacturing jobs -- automated out of existence. The up side is that owners of capital will make MUCH higher profits, while consumers of IT will save some money. Also, access to IT should be more democratic since it will not rely as much on left brain thinking and scarce training.
Microsoft is hardly alone in trying to make administrators and programmers obsolete, and the repressive leftist politics or dystopian fear mongering strike me as burying the lead--especially if you are a technologist whose job is in the cross-hairs of economic and technical history.
