What a tone deaf load of shit.

Here's the deal. Automation should mean the end of compulsory status as an employee. It should mean that we no longer need to fear poverty and homelessness, simply because we weren't feeling the bullshit rat race. It should mean that we can have a place to live, food to eat, clothes to wear, medicine to cure ailments, because production and accounting for such necessities is automatic.

Automation should mean that we get to take on the jobs we enjoy, or at least try to. Automation should mean that we get to throw the full weight of ourselves at our passion.

Automation should NOT mean:

  We don't write your paycheck, so out in the cold with you.

That's not how automation should work.
