AP article on mechanization's and labor shortages' effects on U.S. unemployment, featuring Peter F. Drucker. Drucker argues that, though the U.S. population will increase by one-fifth, the working-age population will increase by only one-tenth. He thus concludes that there will be more people demanding goods and services than actually working to supply them in the near future.
