I'm not sure I follow you. The problem isn't that people lose their passion. The problem is that people lose their means of subsistence. The factory workers displaced by automation share the same plight as the farmers before them: how do I feed my family when I have no job?

It is also far easier in the former case to shrug off and maybe try plumbing, construction or anything else.
