“The spread of computers and the internet will put jobs in two categories: people who tell computers what to do, and people who are told by computers what to do.”
Do any world leaders do either of those things? I guess tweeting is technically telling a computer what to do. Seems like his prediction ignores the higher end power structures. It's right for a lot of jobs, but not the ones that actually inherit the earth and run things. You might inherit some of it as a geek, but you won't be a landlord.

Andreessen is a billionaire, so it's in his interest to try and obscure class divisions with some smart-sounding tech bullshit.
