Ben Evans has a post entitled “Asking the wrong questions” looks back at predictions from Rand. In particular a report from 1964 has several predictions, but this one, off the radar, caught my eye on the inaguration of Donald Trump.

I am not going political here. Just looking at facts. Rand predicted automation would result in economic disparity and assumed we would be smart enough to work together to ensure people would not suffer as a result.

Is this not the populist message?
