First off, thanks for everyone's feedback and discussion on the issue of technology in the state. It was a great discussion and it was great to see some new posters out here. This is a little off topic in terms of crime, but it does have specific implications for the technology industry. It seems to me that the entire problem with the lockout hinges with the potential elimination of union jobs (data entry) through the use of technology. The issue is for the union is the loss of those jobs. However, they want to ensure that any technology jobs that are created are included in the union. This brings up the question: would a union be good and/or necessary for jobs in the technology field?
