I understand the necessity for automated duties such as car manufacturing plants where precision and uniformity are crucial to the product, but we NEED to retain as many jobs as possible, especially at the entry level. For those of us who have made it past entry level jobs it's not as big a deal but we are setting up our children for a society where it's even harder to break past the poverty line. I refuse to admit this was inevitable, this is an extremely sad use of how we apply technology to our daily lives.

No worries, automation will create new jobs too. Someone will have to repair malfunctioning robots so instead of flipping burgers or being a retail clerk the new entry level job is a local robot repairman ... 

Better yet study STEM subjects like I am since they'll have the best wage and job growth too! 

If robots are that advanced by then, you ll have a maintaince robot that goes around repairing other robots.

At some point, there wont be any job a human will be able to do better than a robot.

 

Long long before then, robots will have wrecked our economy.
