What you are also missing Granny is that 'jobs' are gone.
When robots make everything, there is nothing for humans to do.
In the hypothetical future ...
Automation took away masses of jobs in the '80's - eg two thirds of steelworkers (~14,000 jobs) in Hamilton.
But we're still stumbling along with the same old options - EI & welfare support. We just have fewer good jobs and more min wage and part-time service jobs. Workers pay tanked, income supports tanked in the '90's, while billionaire's profits soared.
It will take a revolution (of sorts) to drag things (kicking and squealing) into a better balance.
My thinking is evolving to realistic steps we can take now that may gain broad agreement, as you can see from my last 2 posts to Mr Graham: Taking income support rates off the political football field, and entrenching adequate and indexed welfare rates into law.
