What profession to you think should be eliminated in 2012?

What if I go another way with this?  What if all professions that didn’t add to either the survival or health (mental health included) of mankind were eliminated? What if life got a little simpler?  Cars are killing the planet.  So maybe we go back to horses and horse drawn carriages.  Anyone who works in a profession related to horses they’re safe.  Also anyone who works in a profession related to growing or raising healthy food that isn’t chocked full of nasty chemicals is safe.  Water is another main concern so anyone who can contribute to the distribution and treatment of water is definitely safe.  Of course I’m going to save artist and entertainers.  And if we stop flying planes and driving cars maybe we’ll be able to appreciate our local artist more.  What if all the electronics engineers stop engineering and start repairing?  Don’t we have enough technology devoted to our phones yet?  Can I buy one product and keep it working for say 10 or 20 years.  If more energy was devoted to making a product last or making it repairable those engineers would be viewed as valued service workers as opposed to extortionists.  Back to those whose professions are necessity.  Doctors, nurses, teachers, farmers, builders, cooks,  mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, cousins.  I think we should keep them around.  Will we ever get our priorities straight?
