Bring the robots, work sucks!

The problem is the distribution of wealth. Mankind doing "less work" could be great for all or great for a few and terrible for the rest.

Destitution sucks worse.

That's because we suck at re-distribution.

That's what robots are for!

Are you against automation?

In the abstract no but we currently are heading to a scenario in which inequality reaches extreme levels.

Not necessarily, but I'm against people not being able to feed their families more.
