Again, the assumption of free labor mobility is about as fanciful as the Tooth Fairy. In a free market, just as many people would be screwed over by structural problems, such as the failures of certain whole industries or certain positions becoming obsolete.

Prove it. Prove that "free labor mobility is about as fanciful as the Tooth Fairy".

Post some arguments from economics that show that 0% unemployment is a reality, and it is entirely possible for people to end up being able to make enough money they could afford food, medical, shelter, clothes, toiletries and so on.  

If you want practical realities, is it possible for everyone to be a nurse, or go work on computers?  Is the way the economy is structured now, when a new wave comes in of productivity advances, does that suddenly mean that there are jobs created elsewhere?

If you want an argument against 0% unemployment, that advocates the future of work is going to be non-profit NGO's using people to address social problems, I give you "The End of Work":

Now you need to present arguments against this.
