13. ‘Pathways to Affluence’
•One of the major reasons for Jamaica continuing to be
poor is because
•we have not succeeded in unlocking the
entrepreneurial productive capabilities of the
majority of our people.
•To a large extent our socialization mantra for the
majority of our people has been and still is –
•"Go to school, study hard, pass your exams
then go beg a job".
14. Rex Nettleford
•in his inimitable way,
•long ago reminded us that the
foundation of the Jamaican
economy was created by the
bottom third of the class (room),
•those with less academic
achievements, that left school and
went out and created businesses.
•They then hired the top third of the
class to run those businesses.
15. We are now inThe New Work Order.
•It is no longer muscle of the masses toiling in the cane
field and factories that drive the economy.
•It is now brain power driving intellectually based
enterprises that powers knowledge based economies.
•The requirement today is for the top third of the class to
go out and create the jobs for the rest of the class,
• if Jamaica is to be able to evolve into new economies that runs the
world.

Ground For Criminals
400,000 UnattachedYouth
Gleaner, Wednesday September 21, 2016

28. The sharp increase in Jamaica's murder rate came with the
conscription of the lumpenproletariat into the criminal militias
which fought to establish the political garrisons who willingly
risked their lives and killed their fellow Jamaicans for exclusive
rights to
the free housing, health care, welfare grants, as well as
access to government contracts
which the political representative channeled from the State to
the constituency.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 30
29. rose even higher in the run-up to the 1980 elections, as these
politically aligned militias used their access to the United
States to carve out a huge underground economy based on the
transshipment of illegal drugs from South America through
Jamaica to markets in North America.
In the decade of the 1980s, the underground economy
outperformed the formal economy and as it expanded,
so did the need for the services of those who showed an aptitude for
murder.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 31
30. our underresourced and underperforming education
and training system has been the major contributor
to the expansion of breeding ground for criminals.
The first warning came as early as 1999 in a study by
Pat Anderson which showed that of all
"the youth unemployed in the 15-29 age group, 73.7%
had no educational certification of any kind although
26.8% had four years or more of secondary education."
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 32
31. showed that the number of the 15-29 age group who
are not enrolled in any training institution and are
neither working nor looking for work has expanded
to 388,800.
In 2014 it was this cohort that bred the criminals who
were, in the main, responsible for
237 murders, 344 shootings, 898 robberies,
364 break-ins and 190 cases of aggravated assault.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 33
33. The most urgent priority is the training of our police
to global standards in order to strengthen their
capacity to effectively manage crime and enforce
law and public order.
While this will initially lead to increased arrests and
incarceration, if nothing is done to simultaneously
transform the breeding ground for crime,
the cost of incarceration will quickly cut into the
budget for education and training.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 35
34. Thatcher's Conservative government which took office
in 1979 increased the prison population from 46,994 to
60,000 by 1993, yet in that same period the number of
offences committed doubled.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 36
35. is assigning the JDF the primary
responsibility of enforcing municipal laws
and maintaining public order, particularly in
the transportation centres and markets

carry out their criminal activities with
impunity.

36. the State should facilitate a partnership to
ensure that every classroom has a teacher
trained to global standards
with the capacity to deliver the curriculum as
well as to prepare students for responsible
citizenship,
and to inculcate the value of life and of a clean
and orderly environment.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 38
37. to create more stakeholders in Jamaican
society.
The present concentration of wealth in the top
one per cent and the resultant poverty will only
make the criminal underground economy,
which now includes scamming, even more
attractive.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 39
38. Finally, we must communicate more effectively the successes of our
'rising stars', not only in entertainment and sports but in academia
and entrepreneurship as well.
Our young people need to see television programmes of the kind
hosted by Ian Boyne on Sunday afternoons as well as those on
TVJ's Smile Jamaica which showcase young Jamaicans,
particularly those from inner-city communities who choose to be
law-abiding and demonstrate the capacity to overcome major
obstacles to achieve phenomenal success in business and
professional life.
2/5/2017 www.ABOVEorBEYONDJM.com 40
39. should be developed into documentaries to show the
role played by supportive families and mentors as
well as the challenges posed at the community level.
Then and only then will we begin to transform the
breeding ground into an enabling environment.

aren’t in work, school or training.
If that fell to 10%,
Britain could add £45 billion ($65 billion) to its economic growth, or 2.3% of
GDP,
Part of the problem in the UK is the social stigma attached to vocational
training; apprenticeships aren’t considered valid career paths.
This has helped create a gap between the skills the UK needs and the
ones its young people have.
Between 2005 and 2010, 59% of graduates were in jobs that didn’t

10 JOBS THAT WILL BE REPLACED BY ROBOTS
MICHAEL GROTHAUS 01.19.17 5:52 AM
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 84
77. 1. INSURANCE UNDERWRITERS
AND CLAIMS REPRESENTATIVES
The effects of automation on the insurance industry are already
being felt.
In Japan, Fukoku Mutual Life Insurance has recently replaced 30
of its medical insurance claims reps with an AI system based on
IBM’s Watson Explore, reports the Guardian.
The software can "analyze and interpret all of your data,
including unstructured text, images, audio, and video" better and
faster than a human can, and can "drastically reduce" the time
needed to calculate Fukoku Mutual’s payouts, according to a
company representative.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 89
78. 2. BANK TELLERS AND REPRESENTATIVES
First it was the ATM that ate into human banking jobs, then the smartphone app.
It’s likely that many of the remaining human-based teller and representative banking jobs
will be finished off by AI, reports CNBC.
AI won’t just be able to conduct cash transactions, it will be able to open accounts and
process loans at a fraction of the cost and time it takes for human employees.
"The ATM of tomorrow is going to replace the teller," Andy Mattes, CEO of financial software
company Diebold told the network.
"It can do approximately 90% of what the human being can do, and it's going to be your
branch in a box."
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 90
79. 3. FINANCIAL ANALYSTS
Once thought indispensable to a company, keen-eyed financial
analysts could spot a trend before it happened, allowing
institutions to adjust their portfolios and potentially make billions
of dollars.
But human financial analysts can no longer compete with artificially
intelligent financial analysis software that can read and recognize
trends in historic data to predict future market moves.
It’s no wonder that financial analyst jobs could be the worst hit in
the estimated 30% of banking sector jobs lost to AI in the next five to
10 years.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 91
81. 4. CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
Manual labor jobs are also under threat by automation.
Robotic bricklayers will soon be introduced to construction sites that enable the
machines to replace two to three human workers each, reports Technology
Review.
SAM (Semi-Automated Mason) can lay up to 1,200 bricks a day, compared to the
300 to 500 a human can do.
While a human is still required to work with SAM to complete the more nuanced
tasks, the use of SAM reduces the need for the three other bricklayers it would
take to do the same job.
Other on-site construction jobs such as crane operators and bulldozer drivers can
also expect to see their positions filled by AI-controlled machines in the next
decade.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 93
82. 5. INVENTORY MANAGERS AND STOCKISTS
The supermarket employee restocking the cans in aisle three may soon no longer be a person.
As robots become more advanced, they are capable of performing actions that previously
required a pair of eyeballs, such as managing inventory on a store shelf.
Once such robot called the Tally is designed to audit shelves for out-of-stock items, misplaced
items, and pricing errors, reports Inverse.
Tally roams the aisles and uses multiple sensors to scan the shelves, alerting human staff of its
findings.
While robots like Tally can cost retailers tens of thousands up front, chains stand to save hundreds
of thousands to millions of dollars over the long run because, unlike humans, robots don’t get
sick, need holidays, require a 401(k) payment, and can be retrained in an instant with a simple
software update.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 94
83. 6. FARMERS
Farmers are being replaced by artificially intelligent robots
that can do everything from milk cows to pull lettuce.
A family-owned dairy farm in Germany is one of the first to
install Voluntary Milking System robots that allow cows to
walk up to the machines at their leisure when they want to
be milked, reports Modern Farmer.
And more than 1 million of the U.S.’s farmhands could see
their jobs replaced by intelligent machines that do
everything from weed cabbage patches to pick
apples, reports Quartz.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 95
84. 7. TAXI DRIVERS
While traditional taxi drivers may be feeling the pinch from the likes of Uber and
Lyft, drivers of all three will see their jobs dry up as autonomous vehicles hit the
road.
And it’s the ride-share companies who can’t wait to rush their drivers out of the
car.
As Uber’s CEO has said, its service would be a lot more inexpensive and its profits
much greater if you weren't "paying for that other dude in the car.“
In the next 10 years, cities across the world will have fleets of self-driving taxis.
Uber is testing such vehicles and Singapore is the first country to already put up
to a dozen on the roads.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 96
85. 8. MANUFACTURING WORKERS
A common refrain you hear from populist politicians the world over
is that they will bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S.
But that’s never going to happen.
Even China, the country where the majority of the world’s
manufacturing jobs exist, will see its human manufacturing
workforce depleted by robots in the near future.
As a matter of fact, it’s already happening.
Foxconn, the manufacturer who makes everything from iPhones to
Xboxes,
◦ recently replaced 60,000 workers with robots.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 97
86. 9. JOURNALISTS
It turns out writing is not a problem for AI.
In 2014, the Associated Press began to use
intelligent software to write quarterly earnings
reports.
Up to 3,000 reports are being written by AI every
quarter, the Verge reported.
It’s entirely feasible that content sites of the future
could exist without any human writers at all.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 98
87. 10. MOVIE STARS
It’s possible that we could see actors looking as young in movies as they did when they
first debuted on the big screen.
Recently, Hollywood has taken a liking to advanced CGI techniques that allow even
deceased actors to be resurrected from the dead—the most notable example being Peter
Cushing's Grand Moff Tarkin CGI resurrection in Rogue One: a Star Wars Story.
In the same 2016 movie, Carrie Fisher also appeared as the 21-year-old Princess Leia from
the 1977 Star Wars film.
It’s possible that if both studios and audiences embrace the CGI resurrection technology,
there will be fewer jobs for new potential movie stars in the future as the same beloved
stars of today (and yesterday) could keep staring and "acting" in big blockbusters for
decades to come.
Matter of fact, the use of CGI to bring actors to the big screen was recently the subject of
an excellent sci-fi flick called The Congress, starring Robin Wright as herself.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 99
89. SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE
FUTURE OF WORK?
Is the world going to become a place in which automation is everywhere yet employment is scarce? Burton-
Cartledge says it all depends on the kinds of policies governments deploy to manage this problem.
"Presently, automation is proceeding at a relatively slow pace because labor markets are loose and supply is
plentiful," he says.
"However, if the incoming U.S. president and the current U.K. government decide to restrict immigration, the
market becomes tighter.
Similarly, the baby boomer generation are retiring and withdrawing from the workplace, and the generational
cohorts following them are less numerous.
With tighter labor markets, wage pressures are likely to build, and the solution to protect profits is to invest in
more automation.
Therefore the worst case is sharpening unemployment."
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 101
90. But there is hope.
People who choose careers,
◦such as in the creative, technology, or health care
industries, in which the building of or decision making
about relationships are central,
◦will thrive during the next wave of automation.
And then there are the policies governments could
adopt to avoid or at least mitigate the problems
automation will bring.
2/5/2017 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 102
91. Guaranteed Basic Income?
The introduction of a basic income payable to all citizens that would give
people independence from work as a means of making a living—and give
them more freedom to take risks, such as starting a new business.
Or alternatively, the benefits of automation could be shared by reducing
the workweek.
◦ If automation means higher productivity, do we need people working 40-hour weeks
alongside masses of people who can’t find work?"
A shorter work week?
◦ Maybe automation isn’t that bad.
