For decades, America told its young people the path to success was simple: go to college, get a degree, and find a white-collar job.
Then artificial intelligence arrived — and suddenly some of the most future-proof workers in America may be electricians, plumbers, welders, machinists and HVAC technicians.
In this episode of The Roger Retrospective, we trace how America went from a nation of apprentices and craftsmen to the industrial powerhouse that became the Arsenal of Democracy — and then gradually came to regard skilled trades as a second-tier career path. From Benjamin Franklin and Henry Ford to the GI Bill, the China Shock, globalization and today's massive AI data-center boom, it's the story of how America stopped teaching people to build things just as it discovered it desperately needs them again.
Perhaps AI's greatest irony is that the technology designed to replace human work may restore the value of some of America's oldest skills.
Today's world, through the lens of history.
