text: These idiots do not get it along with automation comes artificial intelligence which will do the same to almost every intellectual profession  that robotics is doing to manufacturing, distribution and transportation. No need for consultants, programmers, economists, doctors, lawyers or even accountants no job will go untouched. Some may be around for a decade or two but like robotics which took 40 years to be pushed through, sooner if the union's power had been wiped out earlier.
  
  So who benefits from the advancements, certainly not the working class. No jobs to feed or house a population a military/police force using robotics. Manufacturing, farming, mining and every other need looked after by machines...why it sound like utopia. The reality is automation will create a society where the fewer people will be able to live on a world with a substantial population reduction.
