        Sinecured pundits like Tom Friedman assure us that factory jobs are no longer necessary. Why is Friedman's job necessary? Let's outsource it

        Its easy, the focus is on personalties and not on substance. Former requires lots of yakking (fun), latter Yakking + thinking?

        @AnnCoulter @Medium They aren't making predictions.. they're trying to sway public opinion. Media has an agenda.
