In the USA:
- In 1780 ~90% of the population were farmers
- Before WWII most workers were in factories
- In 1993 there were more people in government, even when excluding the military, that in manufacturing
- Hamming guessed that in 2020, 25% of civilians will be handling things, the rest information.
Today 1-3% produce the food for the rest of the population (TODO: find source)
