But there's no real precedent for an entire society needing few workers, so I'm not sure that either of us could guess with any certainty what would happen. I'm not saying things will work out, but it's never been tried to the best of my knowledge.

Jobs are naturally becoming more automated by nature of productivity and efficiency, so if you want to prevent that you need to make a stronger case than "it may not work because we've never done it before".
