During the Industrial Revolution, employers utilized newly invented machines to replace many unskilled workers with just a few skilled workers to save money. Today, managers are looking for new technologies to replace highly paid skilled workers with fewer less-skilled workers.

Employers can use technology to save money.

Employers during the Industrial Revolution and in the present day share similar qualities.

The stimulus says that past employers used technology to replace many low-skill workers because it was “economically attractive.” And today’s managers seek technology to reduce labor costs.

This is too broad to support. While the stimulus mentions that some low-skilled workers were fired in the Industrial Revolution, there is no support that they will need these qualities to stay competitive.

This is too broad to support. The stimulus only suggests that technology is sought to reduce the highly skilled workers needed, not that they no longer have an advantage. That could still be true.

This is (at worst) anti-supported. Both examples show how technology is utilized to eliminate jobs so managers can hire fewer people.

This is too strong to support. There is no indication that technological innovations were only heavily present in heavy industry. This is an assumption you have to make. There is also no support for their impact on all industries now.
