I've told Wy many times that a tax on human labor is unconstitutional,
but that they should instead tax automation and robots. When sex robots
are perfected.... pimps will be in "phat city" unless you tax the
services of the robots!
That way the businesses could use human labor and it would compete with
the automation. In essence firing employees for automation would NOT
save them but it would require they pay more tax to support the out of
work humans. SO the incentive would be to balance the use of automation.
Because to much would drive their businesses taxes up and too little
automation would mean they can't efficiently produce and sell their
products.
