7 reasons why today’s left should be optimistic

While I'm not impressed with saying "the left should be optimistic because optimism energizes people and wins elections" under the title of this article, and the claim "Continuing technological advance is unlikely to produce a future of no jobs. It will lead instead to a future of different and more highly skilled jobs" is naive because it doesn't take into account how automation of jobs that require intelligence will leave few to no "highly skilled jobs" for humans to take on, the rest of the article is pretty good:
