The solution.
More people working less hours with full time moving from 40 to 30 hours without a cut in pay. The billion owners of the corporations and trillionaire bankers can afford it.
Automation should be improving the quality of life for all people, not making the top 1% wealthier.

This is the age of entrepreneurship. People that are still looking to have a 'job', especially one that pays the bills, need to change with the times.
I quit my cushy, corporate job in 2005 and started my own businesses. It was tough for the first few years, but since then I haven't looked back.
Only entrepreneurship allows you to make exactly what you are worth and benefit 100% from the fruits of your own labor.

I think it is great that you have found a way in this world. And for many intellectual people like you it is merely a question of will.
But smart people often forget that many people are simply not born with the mind to do what you are suggesting.
We need a system for everyone, regardless of their mental aptitude.
