You comment is a very, very important one and I hate that people don't see the difference between jobs for jobs sake and productive jobs.

I mean if all we wanted was jobs we could just outlaw gasoline, electricity and non-human powered generators. That would create jobs for untold millions.

It would also be utterly destructive for our standard of life/health/happiness/etc.
