That is a good insight

The future is here
The rise in the public service with people adding little value but being paid
The rise in "make work" activities
Like the child care sector being relabeled as child education
Employing more credentialed staff to "educate" your 2 year old
Schools "needing" psychologists to counsel the bullies and the bullied
The police force expanding yet not reducing the serious crime rate
Immigration allowing the entry of those who don't want to be assimilated
Causing and adding to the social chaos
Manufacturing made extinct
We make very little except houses
Which we trade to each other and the Chinese
So the Govt gets its stamp duty
Which lets it employ more public servants
When you take out those "employed" to fulfill invented "needs"
The unemployment rate would probably be close to 40%

There will always be jobs for barristas and real estate agents.
