throughout the comments, people have commented about the necessity of work as if the only jobs required for society to function are 40 hour corporate office accounting professionals and IT staff.

the entire concept vastly downplays the actual number of services people utilize and purchase. how do you automate a lawsuit? which robot knows how to install a new circuit breaker box? and even if a robot could hypothetically discover new oil fields who decides how it searches and where are these mythological solar powered oil field search bots that have close to unlimited range so nobody has to figure out what depot they're stashed in?

finally, how do I build a new computer and phone from scratch when no slave labor exists to create all the components that go into that design since apple and microsoft and samsung and sony all have to go out of business because nobody has any money to buy their devices?

I would google it, but they're out of business since ads don't work in a society without money.

the library card only goes so far. psychological thrillers to academic psychiatry, kids books to romance novels, newspaper articles going back 50 years, but somehow I don't think I'd be able to learn micro-computing circa 2016. It would be back to concepts circa 1980-1996 and the entire field would be tedious again.

yes. a work free world would be terrible. I've thought about it a lot because the better part of my life is spent figuring out how to work less. you notice over time the people who don't have a choice in automation and they get my respect because there's very little chance they're ever unemployed longer than a couple days in their lifetime.
