In 1980, Jimmy Carter got a law through Congress to set up a government-funded refugee resettlement program. You can read about it here.

This is an amazing video. Over three million people have seen it. Notice that there are a dozen workers on the bridge. There may not be as many as there would have been, had the machine not been invented, but there are still employees. They are skilled employees. Message: don’t be John Henry.

Here is a professional video taken with an iPhone 6S Plus. It is shot in super-high resolution 4K. Here is how they did it. This technology lets the average person produce professional videos.
