"To workers being pushed out of jobs by today's technology, history has a message: You're not the first.
From textile machines to the horseless carriage to email, technology has
 upended industries and wiped out jobs for centuries. It also has 
created millions of jobs, though usually not for the people who lost 
them.
'People suffer — their livelihoods, their skills and training are worth 
less,' says Joel Mokyr, a historian of technological change at 
Northwestern University. 'But that is the price we pay for progress.'"
