It's a little bit different when we talk about professional drivers who have incredible... I mean, I met truck drivers who'd have 2 million miles with no crashes or accidents.
But just as a general rule, most of us, the average driver thinks they're safer than the average driver.
And the average driver stands a shockingly high percentage chance of getting somebody killed.
So...
Yeah, I'm seriously concerned about it.
And part of that's from growing up in the industrial Midwest.
We were told, I grew up in Northern Indiana, a lot of auto industry supply chain companies there.
And in the 90s and 2000s, a lot of trade and automation, but the truth is mostly automation.
came in and everybody was told, you know, don't worry too much about what you're doing today.
The pie is going to get so much bigger that everybody will be better off.
And the thing is, the pie did get bigger, but the rest of that promise didn't come through and people were pissed.
People were pissed because they lost their income.
But also, even after they got their income, if they went through a training program and got another job in a field that was growing but it wasn't who they thought they were, it wasn't connected to their sense of identity or belonging, then you continue to have a displacement that's not just economic but really deeper than that.
And I actually think a lot of that
kind of leads directly to the populism and the nationalism that you see in this administration in this political moment.
And the thing that really haunts me is,
As much as any auto worker or electrical worker I know, their sense of belonging and identity very much depends in many ways on being an auto worker or an electrical worker.
That's even more true for most white collar workers I know.
People who work in law or software, you see what's happening in radiology.
Just to take one example of what's happening in medicine that's really changing because of AI.
