It's no longer a question of "if" we're going to all eventually be replaced with robot overlords in the workplace, it's a question of "when".

Our longstanding economic model is based on the assumption that all production of goods and services requires human activity. What happens when we reach the point where a substantial percentage of production can be generated with no human input?

It's where the idea of a "living wage" or free entitlements to the non-working class starts to be arguable.

Mayor of NYC sending the homeless across the country paying 1 yr rent and money for furniture. Problem. Mayors of the towns are never told. Why the secret Bill the Hypocrite

Factories need workers. DeBlasio should contract with Detroit, get the old Packard plant fixed up and employing the multitudes.

What happens when there are no consumers for mass produced goods? Do they still get made?

When automation eliminates the need for us as workers, I suspect that we will be one step closer to fulfilling one of the principles of the Georgia Guidestones: Never let the population of the earth go above 500 million. 7.3 billion Gentiles will have to say Good Bye.
