A study predicts computers will replace 6% of existing US jobs in just 5 years. Even if it overestimates by 2, losing just 3% of jobs would be a disaster already.

As increasing numbers of people compete for fewer jobs, plutocratist politicians will surely blame those who lose for not being superior enough to win. Some will try to organize whites to gang up to deny blacks a chance in these contests; but that tactic, besides being unjust, won't suffice for long. By 2030 there won't be enough jobs even for the whites.

Here's an idea: tax the use of automated drivers, customer service, and other things, and use that money to give the unemployed a decent life.
