It Will Happen
I don't think it really matters much if at all what workers and professionals think about this issue, it's only a matter of time until it happens, for two main reasons. First, folks like this punditing Gent are in control of our world and when they find a chance to make another buck, it gets taken, no matter how many people get hurt. Second, humanity in general has an unfortunate and innate characteristic, namely that when something becomes possible, it eventually gets regarded as necessary.
