Theoretically if robots make everything, everything is free.

    Automate the work no one wants to do and we can all grow and explore our own interests. Star Trek here we come! Don't chase money chase betterment of oneself and society. Sadly we will destroy ourselves way before it happens.

    Once robots can do all the work for the rich, why would they bother to give anything to the poor?
