Automation and Robots Could Permanently Disrupt Capitalism

GOOD.

Anyone who read this will see how NOTHING good can come out of this.

We are looking at something entirely unprecedented, and if it is not carefully managed, we are looking at upheaval comparable to industrial revolution, which, as we know, gave us totalitarianism, two world wars, and nuclear weapons. (Though a few generations later it also gave us unprecedented prosperity and peace).

seeing what we do about it so far, however, it is not encouraging.
