Just saying....that the hungry hoard you purport to see 'coming'....maybe, with their 'basic income' in hand....or not....ain't no problem for you?

Personally, I ain't got nothing for them to take....now, you, on the other hand, imply that you do....and you're gonna let'm 'have it'.....Well, me too, just in another way. ;)

they had these robot bag carts they tried at the country club. The things were pegged to a small transmitter chip card in the golfers pocket. They could follow with precision within certain GPS boundries(they'd stop before ponds or clumps of trees or rock walls). Well, no one programmed for human nature, you know, jumping that last plank of the bridge over the creek at an angle or hopping over the edge of large, deep sand traps. Freaking things were getting fished out of the creeks, trashed in the traps. I'm sure technology will address that earthshattering issue.
Look, serious answer, the progress is coming, and far quicker than most folks grasp.

The authors believe we may see a massive transition on a scale not seen since the early 1900s, when workers shifted from farms to factories. The report also cited the potential need for an effort on the same scale as the Marshall Plan, when the United States spent billions to rebuild Western Europe after World War II.
