Again, I have only one vote, just like you. I don&#x27;t think I have any particular right when it comes to setting policy.<p>But, if radical redistribution of wealth is wanted by voters, then the population can enact laws to make it happen.<p>I have no doubt that automation on a scale beyond what most people think is possible (and maybe desirable) is coming. Today, any talk of basic income in the US isn&#x27;t going to go anywhere. However, at some point enough people are going to be out of work that they will be a big enough voting block that politicians will start restructuring the economy to make those voters happy. I&#x27;m not sure I see any other possible outcome.
