Remember the good ol' days? Looks like MAGA's dreams may be coming true. Robot repairman. Sweet.
U.S. Secretary of Commerce says the ‘new model’ is factory jobs for life—for you, your kids, and your grandkids
“It’s time to train people not to do the jobs of the past, but to do the great jobs of the future,” Howard Lutnick told CNBC this week.
“This is the new model, where you work in these plants for the rest of your life, and your kids work here, and your grandkids work here.”
While Lutnick said this is all part of President Trump’s larger plan to make America more independent from foreign imports and services, the administration’s targeted deportation of immigrants has left many domestic manufacturers scrambling for labor. To keep up with supply, people have to fill the plant jobs, and Lutnick thinks technicians tending to factory robots are the next hot gig.
“You gotta remember these plants, all these automated arms and stuff, they need to be fixed. They all need a technician to fix them,” he said. “This is tradecraft, this is high school-educated, great jobs.”
