Labor is quickly becoming obsolete in an age of automation labor is no longer necessary for a great portion of the population however because our economy is based on it this creates big problems the ones finding themselves not needed anymore. We will need to completely restructure the way our economy works to at least provide basic things like a house to live in electricity,etc and money for food to all members of the population without requiring them to work or this situation will reach a tipping point for a revolution. Working members of the population would obviously be able to get more but at least the basic needs for survival are taken care of without the need to work. Having a lot of people with tons of time on their hands may just be a blessing in disguise. Who knows what they come up with if they have so much time to think. I'm certain a large part won't do anything productive with their time but you can count on human competitiveness and their desire of the working class's freedoms to drive the economy. Problem is this basically means that companies would be supporting the entire population most likely forced through taxes and such. This is going to present some interesting problems but it's either this or a revolution destroying everything and replacing it with something that will most likely be less efficient. Could actually ban automation which would definitely be a step backwards. Well it's just a theory but we as a society are approaching something like this.
