I'm pretty sure machine labor is the inevitable endgame for warehouse labor, and I think it's likely coming sooner than most other manual labor that's reasonable to automate, since it's a controlled, structured environment and there's no need to interface with humans.
For the unemployable, I think we'll need a combination of super-cheap scalable teaching methods and a more socialist system. Hopefully we'll be able to transition relatively smoothly, if that's the case.
