I believe Automation is incoming but it's not going to wipe out as many jobs as we think. A focus on social/community workers will still be needed to keep structures intact and ethical. What do you think?

Automation is just an expansion of productive capital. It furthers the division of labor and contributes to the total produce while reducing the proletariat's share of that production, just as Marx said it would over a century ago. This makes the worker's life harder over time even if it does get better. Idk about how UBI fits into this beyond some morsel of scraps thrown to the masses, but I don't think we're going to see it anytime soon.
