What happens when technology reaches the point that there literally aren't enough practical jobs for everyone (i.e. we can automate manual labor and even simple mathematical jobs), to the point where maybe only 10% of humanity can actually work? Assuming that we can also completely afford to have government provide $100,000 a year worth of goods/services to the remaining 90% of humanity (again, via technology), would you be all right with this or would you demand that SOME sort of artificial manual labor be required for the other 90% to receive government benefits?
