If someone discovers a cure for the common cold, should he or she hide it to protect the jobs of allt he people who work in the huge cold-medicine industry?
Identify reasons why so many people react negatively to advances in technology that eliminates some jobs.

Honestly, i think that by finding the cure to the common cold, people should publicized it. Because with finding the sure, sure some jobs might be eliminated but new jobs will come up. Like the distribution of the cure to different countries. So people should not be upset because curing the common cold will help save lives. Any thing done with a good intention, will genuinely have a good effect

.

The reason people react negatively to advances in technology is

1. they're lazy to learn how to use it
2. they might loose their jobs that require work, that technology can do itself. By the loss of jobs, people wont be able to pay their bills.
