Comment by Jeremy Rifkin
American Economic and Social Theorist, Author, Political Advisor
The fact is that we're ending mass wage labor. This is what's going on with all the companies I've been working with. [...] Even if you retrained the entire workforce of Europe so that they would be qualified for these high-tech jobs, there would never be enough work in this sector to absorb mass labor. That's true all over the world.AI Verified source (Aug 3, 2005)

Verified: the DER SPIEGEL page is credited to Jeremy Rifkin and dated 2005-08-03; it contains the opening sentence block of the stored quote at line 60 and the later sentence block at line 87, so the [...] omission is faithful and the stored author, date, source URL, and content are correct.

SPIEGEL’s August 3, 2005 article is by Jeremy Rifkin and was adapted from conversations with him, and it does contain the two prose passages corresponding to the first and third sentences of the submitted quote. However, the middle sentence, “Mass labor is disappearing forever,” appears in the source as a standalone subheading/editorial heading, not clearly as Rifkin’s spoken or written sentence within the body text. So the submitted block is not fully verbatim as presented. ([spiegel.de](https://www.spiegel.de/international/jeremy-rifkin-on-europe-s-uncertain-future-the-end-of-work-a-368155.html))
