I guess I was reading a different article, as there was no mention of slowing or stopping. I would say that companies should be taxed more when they use more efficient robots to replace workers for the simple reason they are more profitable. Most companies probably do not pay the same amount of taxes as inefficient human workers employed by them would but that is not an issue with the robots but corporate tax breaks. I don't have the answer but taxing robot workers is not realistic, where do you draw the line? I also find ironic the fact that now that Bill Gates has made his billions by selling products that have done and continue to do exactly what he suggests cost jobs, should somehow be taxed. I agree that innovation disrupts the status quo and produces a redistribution of wealth that in many cases is very uneven but keep government out of it please.
