No extra money after you're replaced by a robot. Just have to eat that hummus with a bag of chips from the Dollar Store

But seriously, the issue of all the people who have been losing their jobs to automation, and all the ones who will be in the future will only get worse.
Ironically, this is what robots and automation were supposed to do -- give us leisure time.
However, they didn't promise that the leisure time would be in a place where we live indoors, and have food to eat.
Someone needs to figure that out...and soon.
