At the end of 2 generations, people may not need to work or 50+% of them will be forced into permanent unemployment. What do you do in that case? Does the state toss democracy out the window by culling the unemployable? Does the state implement basic income to prevent such a tragedy from occurring?

People have been predicting that for hundreds of years, and it still hasn't happened. >What do you do in that case? Does the state toss democracy out the window by culling the unemployable? Does the state implement basic income to prevent such a tragedy from occurring? The problem is UBI might cause big problems in the absence of any other problems. Certainly if labor becomes mostly worthless I'd consider it, but that's certainly not the case just yet.
