The machine vision expert Bob Mottram has posted

http://streebgreebling.blogspot.com/2011/04/robot-economics.html

on future trends for the "economically inactive" (i.e., jobless)
fraction of the human population. Motters really knows his
stuff, about robots anyway, and he expatiates into ideas
or guesses on the future of money and the trade-off
between robot-generated wealth and ease of acquisition
of the necessities of life. The Big Cheese suggests that
people won't revolt against the status quo, but you
should consider revolution as a permanent operation.

Dunno. What matters is that
