Just out of curiosity, in this system, how would anything get done, and who would do it?
What's the motivation to work?

The majority of work is done by robots. Money isn't the only motivator. (Proper) Scientists don't work for the money, its finding out the unknown that motivates them.

That used to be the case.
Nowadays i'd highly disagree with you. The monetary gains of science have far outweighed the scientific discovery aspects in most scientists today.
Very few scientists work in theoretical unprofitable fields compared to the ones that produce money making stuff.
