From the author of Popular Economics comes a surpringly sunny projection of America's future job market.
Forget the doomsday predictions of sour-faced nostalgists who say automization and globalization will take away your dream job. The job market is only going to get better and better, according to economist John Tamny, who argues in
The End of Work that the greatest gift of prosperity, beyond freedom from painful want, is the existence of work that is interesting.
“John Tamny’s The End of Work is the answer for everyone who dreads Mondays. In this entertaining book, he shows how passion is becoming the path to a paycheck. The future work is bright!”
—JOHN MACKEY, CEO of Whole Foods
“Professional video game players, video game coaches, NFL Insiders? John Tamny’s exciting book about the explosion of jobs that don’t feel at all like work will resonate with those fearful about the future. It’s going to be glorious.”
—ADAM SCHEFTER, ESPN NFL Insider
“The United States is where the world’s ambitious have long come to make their mark. John Tamny shows why. There are so many things that make America great, but arguably its best attribute is that its freedom correlates with more and more people showing up to work each day with joy in their hearts.”
—JOSÉ ANDRÉS, Chef-Owner of ThinkFoodGroup and founder of World Central Kitchen
“Robust economic growth frees us from the burden of jobs that require little skill, are not satisfying, and leave most people facing Monday with dread. As robots replace humans in certain kinds of jobs, new, impossible-to-foresee jobs will be created, and fewer and fewer people will be going to ‘work.’ As John Tamny reminds us, they’ll be pursuing their passions.”
