I mean, I'm all for basic income. But it is flat out wrong that employment rate will be divided by 2 in 15 years. It will be about the same.
I can't even begin to conceive the confusion of ideas that would lead one to think that work automation leads to lower employment rates.

I'm surprised you think that, because I look at this list http://www.businessinsider.com/most-popular-jobs-in-america-2014-4 … and see lots of jobs disappearing in 15 years.

Let's wait 15 years and find out! Jobs will disappear, new jobs will be created. I don't think the balance will be negative.

Couldn't agree more. A higher-wage service economy would grow, similar to after the industrial revolution. Hardly dystopian.

@fchollet bad at predicting the future. It's likely going to happen regardless. Rather than debate it, one should accept it and adapt. -
one should also try to help the people who lost out learn new ways to survive.
