My intuition would be that the resistance would come from grumpy old guys like me who spent most of their lives perfecting their craft.

You grumpy old guys probably own a house. As labour continues to get devalued, it feels like assets are the only path to prosperity. That's where my anxiety is coming from, anyway.

It should be coming from them too

My guess is a lot of those grumpy old guys, on this site at least, are sitting pretty with large bank accounts. So they don't need to worry about their jobs anymore. They could retire safely tomorrow if they wanted. So they don't care.

Just another instance of the older generation trying to loot the future from the younger.
