This article seems to be saying that Europes skilled labor work force is losing jobs to technology after sorting through the confusing numbers. Makes me wonder how much the US skilled labor work force has lost jobs to unskilled illegal mexican cheap labor. Their unskilled level of work has been apparent many years but it is covered up by government and the employers. Especially in the construction business and jobs of workmanship it is showing its nasty face. The bad part is that the consumers and home buyers faced with badly built homes and products can't do anything about it because government agency's in charge of laws in quality of work and materials do not enforce any laws. They turn their heads and tell us, buyer be ware, like we are all specialist in home construction and manufacturing. European workers can at least get retrained to get different jobs or better jobs while the americans are at the mercy of government and business profiteering off the cheap illegal work forces coming from mexico. Business profits in more than cheap labor, they also profit from not haveing to pay taxes on a work force that doesn't exist, on paper anyway.
