You know we took a wrong turn as a society when not having to work is seen as a devastating crisis. Let the robots serve us and start enjoying life!
Unfortunately, we still have to pay for things. No work = no money = no food or housing
Says who?
There's nothing stoping us from restructuring the system such that we don't need money/work to live a comfortable life.
That would be nice. But governments aren’t so hype on UBI yet.
Nor all the fat cats with billions of dollars.
So eat them. We elect them, and we outnumber the elite that would oppose this.
