"$income goes to zero for that particular person at the time they lose their job, yes, but all of their prices for every good that gets automated goes down. " And what good does that do the people who no longer have any income? "If we repeatedly make everything cheaper, then a low income doesn't matter." Where are these people getting any income? "People wouldn't have to work 40 hours a week, sure, but would everyone just sit around with their thumbs up their butts not knowing how to provide value to others?" Not everyone, but a majority of people, probably.
