There are many【7】with the thesis above, not the least of【8】is that wealthy capitalists can buy the experts and knowledge they need to keep their profits and influence. Rut this does not【9】the importance of knowledge in an advanced industrial society, as he【10】of some new industries indicates.【11】, genetic engineering and the new comp iter technology have【12】many new firms and made some scientists quite rich. In【13】with criticism of the postindustrial society thesis, however, it must also be【14】that those already in control of huge amounts of capital (i. e. , major corporations) soon【15】to take most profits in these industries based on new knowledge.

Illiteracy in English language has been a severe【19】for many years in the United States, but we are also moving to the point when computer illiteracy will hinder many more people and【20】them to a life of low-skill and low-paid labor.
