Peggy and Tom Wheeler, visiting fellow, Brookings Institute, and book author, "From Gutenberg to Google, The History of Our Future", talk about how technology is evolutionary. It isn’t always two guys in a garage having a Eureka moment. He explains that each new technology has had a serious economic and societal challenge—and why should we expect anything to be different today. He points to examples on the railroad and in coal mines. His recommendation? We have to have new expectations about what employment means to all of us.
