You are very tiring to discuss things with as you simply miss basic economic principles in your promotion of the worker. I don't have the Patience to multiquote

If you force someone to work at a task that could be automated you effectively have a minimum income. 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.
