My Topic:
Robots will take human's jobs in the future.

What I hope to learn from this source: 

Relation between unemployment rate of laborer and technology development.

Notes:

1. For three decades, wages have evaporated as a share of the economy. Meanwhile, the proportion of national income consumed by profits, dividends, and capital gains has steadily grown. Capital 1, Labor 0.
2. Just as the rise of income inequality has been a global phenomenon, so too has been the fall of labor.
3. The pair compiled data for 56 countries and found that worldwide, workers' share of GDP had fallen roughly five percentage points since the 1980s. 
4. As the digital revolution started unfolding in earnest during the 1980s, the cost of computing power fell precipitously.
5. As a result, companies began investing in high-tech equipment instead of comparatively inefficient and expensive employees.
6. The technology boom, the researchers argue, explains about half the drop in labor's share of the world's economy

Final Thoughts:

This article provides me with some statistics and realistic evidence that an unemployment rate of labor has been increased since the digital revolution started during 1980s. This support help me to corroborate my idea.
