And to this day the effects can be seen. Think about it next time you go through the self check out in a supermarket. More and more jobs being taken by the use of machines.

The French had a similar phase, often their workers who wore heavy boots would smash and kick to bits the machinery to prevent it from being used. The French word for boot is sabot, therefore the actions of these workers or saboteurs destroying the machines became known as sabotage!👍😁

If it wasn't for the English Absolute truth in 1777 wouldn't be able to murder the language. You are what the English call a luddite.
