I think you're right. We should be training for the jobs of the future. The jobs of the future are going to be less in taking metal and wood and bashing them into different shapes and more in taking ideas and concepts and thinking them through.
At the same time, though, I would be a little bit cautious, say, to write off something like the auto industry, where a lot of that metal-bashing stuff is now done by robots. The jobs of the future are going to be in designing robots and the software for robots, so you can still have that kind of manufacturing and still have some very good jobs.
