I continue to think that we need to develop an economic theory or policy which is predicated on the reduced need for human labor.Try looking at the view point of abundance rather than scarcity.
Humans have shown remarkable resilience whenever industries become outmoded to invent whole new industries to improve our standard of living.

Perhaps ossified attitudes are more to blame than technology shifts for extended inability of people in outmoded crafts to adapt. The boom of the horseless carriage gave the buggy whip maker a new market — in crafting upholstery. But old buggy whip makers and new upholstery manufacturing management both had difficulty in thinking outside of the box.
