This is the paragarph that set me on fire. ;)

"But technology, like Google Wallet, will continue to kill jobs for
people that don’t have those skills. *Or the desire to have those
skills*.  As business owners, we will of course *try to do what we
can*.  We’ll do what we can to provide more training and to help
people *who desire to learn more skills* get a leg up.  But *there is
a limit*.  Businesses can only afford so much.  The Government *can
only afford to do so much*. "
