Symbolic analysis is a noble profession. Yet without including a component of hands-on, renaissance-person building of physical artificts - the physical realities that we deal with - it can mislead civilization into further wealth maldistribution. Robert Reich addresses the part of wealth inequality in The Work of Nations. Reich identifies 3 classes - the Symbolic Analyst, routine producer, and the service industry. The Routine Producer is out of luck.
But not to worry - The Second Industrial Divide already made a compelling case that routine production is not the only way. Flexible fabrication is the answer - where interesting lives can be had outside of mass production - and instead, in more of the Ghandian production by the masses. In the digital age - the craft production side is compelling: open source microfactories can become the new engine of production - as production shifts from one-size-fits-all to custom production. The case is clear for higher-skill, craft producers - leveraging digital production technology, artificial intelligence, robotics and automation, biotech, blockchain - in the Third Industrial Revolution and the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
