I&#x27;m not certain you understood my question, or perhaps I misunderstood your statement.<p>It seems to me that you&#x27;re saying a small minority of people will work as entertainers (and presumably get paid for doing so) while another small minority fulfills critical functions that can&#x27;t be automated, and the majority sits back to be entertained.<p>What I&#x27;m not clear on is where the money comes from to pay the entertainers and the critical maintainers, if the majority aren&#x27;t working. The money can&#x27;t come from the masses, because the masses aren&#x27;t employed. Are you suggesting that in this scenario, it&#x27;s a post-scarcity society, money is never transferred at all, and that&#x27;s why it works?
