Howard Lutnick

Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick shared on CNBC his vision for “jobs of the future,” where generations of families work in manufacturing plants across the U.S. their whole lives—and it sounds pretty dystopian.

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump’s Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, spoke on MSNBC about the Trump administration’s version of the American dream.

It doesn’t involve universal healthcare, a living wage, and access to food and housing.

“It’s time to train people not to do the jobs of the past, but to do the great jobs of the future.”

“This is the new model where you work in these kinds of plants for the rest of your life and your kids work here and your grandkids work here.”

He added a workplace description reminiscent of Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel Brave New World, saying:

“You know, we let the auto plants go overseas. Right now you should see an auto plant, it’s highly automated but the people—the four, five thousand people who work there—they are trained to take care of those robotic arms, they are trained to keep the air conditioning system.”

But people felt Lutnick’s new model sounded more like a few old ones involving company towns with zero upward mobility or workers’ rights, serfdom, and slavery.

However, one person offered up a very different plan for the future.

With no plans from the Trump administration to lower grocery prices, they might have the right idea.
