I am glad to see people paying attention to this issue. I hope it is not politicized. Many people feel that that work is a moral issue; that able-bodied people who do not work should not be given sustenance. This was a reasonable view in the past, but now that robots are making rapid progress it is gradually becoming unreasonable. We need to adjust morality to fit the technology of our time. What is moral in one era may not be in the next.
