The most basic things are becoming cheaper and cheaper, so I don't think there are good enough reasons to run on that treadmill to deliver pizzas or wait tables. Those are bonus, yet we warrant that those things are necessary in society, instead of giving a basic income. My rant is not only about automation and the need of jobs, it's also political, it's about resource allocation. Arguing that "everybody has to do its part" is a paradox in a free capitalist society. If there is known inequality on top of it, asking people to get that job will not make sense, especially when you hear that people are working hard to automate everything. So either your take unemployed people and you train them at robotics, but you can't tell them to deliver pizza when engineers are working on pizza-making machines.
