Picture London in the 1890s, buried under a crisis no one saw coming-horse manure. With each horse producing 35 pounds daily, the city faced an existential threat. Experts predicted New York would be buried to third-story windows by the 1930s. Then the combustion engine arrived, and horses vanished almost overnight. Today we face a parallel moment, except this time we're the horses. The difference? Horses didn't write books about their obsolescence or debate policy solutions. We do, and that makes our predicament both more complex and more urgent. Technology has always disrupted work, but what's coming isn't just another industrial shift-it's a fundamental questioning of humanity's economic purpose.
