Last summer I took a job in construction. Construction fits the bill of what you’re describing. There needs to be more construction in America
I agree, but it won't be possible to expand construction enough to cover all of the jobs that agriculture lost. Back in 1950 that was almost 5% of the work population. Construction might absorb 2% or 3% under ideal conditions. But some creativity will be needed to reabsorb all of what was lost.
