Still plenty of “Blue Collar” work in this senario. Glaziers & carpenters for doors and windows. Interior fit (pluming and electrics still need doing even with conduits) flooring, decorating etc. You might lose a few “brickies” but they could always retrain to setup and use the new equipment. It’s not such a radical change – just an improvement to an existing function (wall building). Always best to change one thing at a time.

And yes; if putting someone out of a job was a reason to hold back progress we would still be subsistence farmers. In some countries people still are. How are they doing?

If this fusion stuff lives up to its promise pitty the poor coal miner / grid lineman / oil rigg worker / gas pipeline engineer / petrol pump attendant / prospecting geologist / refinary worker / tanker captain (and ship yard craftman) / windmill designer / solar paanel fitter / barrel maker / add your own… / not to mention all those people making a fortune out of climate change. What are we thinking!!! :gulp:
