Not being jealous just wondering how people who don't own or make robots will be able to make a living wage off of their labor in the coming decades. There's just not going to be enough work for them to do once we have unlimited, skilled, cheap robots.
the only solution i see without massive inequality is one where we can distribute wealth. it's not jealousy. it will be a technological utopia if executed correctly - nobody will have to work, we all get to do whatever we want all day.
there will always be inequality, but if we live in a just society it will be one where the least well off person is still reasonably well off. a guaranteed living wage might do that - and that's exactly what i'm talking about, actually. but there might be enough breathing room in the future to give more than a living wage.
obviously it's a little pie in the sky at this point, but in 10 years it won't seem so much.
