Work force disruption is an unfortunate side effect of technological disruption. If your solution is NOT to embrace change because you don't want to see disruption take place then that's not a long-term solution.

Edit: I'd like to expand on this with a (not so) hypothetical. Autonomous cars are already here. How long until we have automated taxis? Let's just say 10 years. Would you make them illegal to keep the taxi workforce in place?

There is disruption in virtually every workforce because of the Information Era. Our work force will have to adapt.
