This country used to spend 99% of it's effort producing grub. Over the millenia, this has gone down to a tiny figure, I am guessing , but lets say 1%
most of this has been due to technology and innovation.
If we can achieve the same success with ipads and beer production, maybe we dont need to pay our way any more
in other words, if we had a magic grub, gizmo and beer producer, wouldn't that be the end of work as we know it ?
