It depends on how fast automation of jobs occurs? We obvious can make superb robots for any sort of physical labor, as exemplified by the Boston Dynamics robot fleet. What is missing-as with all electric cars- is a reliable power storage format. There seems to be tons or great engineering being reported that could power cars and robots for hours and hours, plus, now, fast wireless charging, but unless Musk produces it, physical laborers must wait a while. Rostrum's Universal Robots (Czech for workers) as envisioned almost a century ago. Automation of office jobs, from engineers to clerks may occur much faster. The Young do believe that the state will care for their needs, because it sounds like an easy answer and we all like easy answers. What happens of course is beyond my control. I don't fear the robots for some reason and looking forward to walking androids, simply because I like walking androids.

I, of course, oppose, Mr. Spudboy, this isn't something that is just going to effect those "other people". I humbly suggest you stop worrying about millennials liberals and conservatives and start to consider how you personally intent to make a living when robots in your own profession of potato farming can do your job better than you can.
