Home appliances in the developed world

In the developed world, home appliances have greatly reduced the need for physical labour. people need to be involved in tasks that once left them little time to do much else.

For example, the word processor and email have, to a great , replaced the dedicated secretarial staff that briefly flourished with the rise of the typewriter. At time all copies were made with manual scribes, carefully duplicating what they read. Then we had carbon paper. Then photocopiers. Then printers. Then the requirement for physical copy reduced.

An entire stream of labour appeared and disappeared as technology advanced. We freed ourselves of one kind of work; we just replaced it another.
