It is a theory that has some merit. Governments the world over will certainly already be concerned with the present trends, epsecially when coupled with these future projections.
The problem is that creating jobs out of nothing is not something that can simply be done.
The one thing capatilism has (thus far) proven to be terrible at is allowing the bourgouseis to pursue more artisitc pursuits. Those of us (with a microscopically small exception) pursue careers such as acting, painting, writing or any of the other fine arts by and large barely make the breadline.
I have little hope that capitalism will be any more encouraging of such pursuits when a society's constituants have less to do.
I got proof of this within two weeks of the twin towers horror.
I had forgotten entirely an ebay account I created back when they first began - it has been apparently the source of an immense amount of spam unfortunately. Ebay was the only place I used this email account in any public forum. As I had forgotten I was always wondering where it came from until I got an email from them telling me that my ebay membership was being discontinued because my details stateed I was living in Afghanistan, but my address didn't quite add up. Apparently they looked at the home country of everyone's details at the time and would have sent all their info into whichever authorities was asking.
So, if you have bought any sort of war paraphernalia of anykind through ebay, you will be on a big database that the CIA (or whatever they are calling themselves nowadays) are looking over even as you read this.
BigBrother is definitely watching you, and all this talk about middleeast war is being orchestrated purely to give the US (and countries') government more and more power over their contituents in their supposedly 'free demomcratic states'
The problem with that is that no organization can afford to make those sort of guarantees.
As soon as someone guarantees a site involving banking details is safe, they open themselves up to all sorts of liability.
That in turn means that if they are wrong, then they could we be forced to cover all losses incurred from such an attack.
