If you force someone to work at a task that could be automated you effectively have glorified welfare They provide no value and you pay them for it. Why not tax the profit and pay them to actually do nothing or even better pay for public works programs that employ displaced people.

Just made an update.
When iggy's country makes a panel of an army of analysts who will clumsily determine what advancements make more jobs and which ones don't, more sophisticated countries will build the advancements and generate more wealth at the expense of iggy's country.
Economies are based on ideas and improvements. The value of simple labor in many areas is decreasing and has been for generations. Labor needs to evolve and adapt to what the planet wants, not pay milkmen 55k a year even though nobody needs a milkman, simply because iggy's thinks he deserves a decent wage.
