Automation (1987)

Arafat

(1987)Automation, America, 1987, Shuldig, Technology, a Dry Bones cartoon
Today's Golden Odie cartoon was published on July 21, 1987.
A cartoon I drew exactly 24 years ago today!

I'd moved to Israel sixteen years earlier in 1971 and was now back on a trip to the States. I was amazed at the advanced state of what we called "automation" back in 1987.

In 2011 America's hope for the future is not automation. It's "job creation."

Changing times.
Sigh.
