    you address the basic problem with automation in a capitalist society. when jobs are 'automated' out of existance, the people who worked them are thrown out onto the street. new masturbatory jobs need to be created just to keep people busy.

    i mean, sooner or later the only job left is going to be robot polisher..either everyone who doesn't get that job starves or we find another system for handing the allocation of work... i've always liked r.a. wilsons idea in the schroedingers cat trilogy of offering $50k/year to anyone who replaces their job with a machine and $30k/year to the people who used to do that job.
