How are we going to have an economy? MIT has already done studies on this. Man has become obsolete in production.

Such as life. Stop having 10 freaking kids and there won't be much to worry about.

kids in general. If everyone is so worried about there not being enough jobs, why are people still having tons of kids? They are creating their own problems.

Then all humans will have to so is sit back, get fat, and let the robots provide for all of human needs. With no cost in labor, how cheap will food and services be?

Millions will probably be lost in the human-robot war of 2050, but the survivors will have it made.

Well according to Obama the ATM's are the ones putting all these folks in the unemployment lines. Even though ATM's have been around for years before he was president. I guess he can use the robot argument during the next election and declare he is against robots because he cares about the American workers. He's tried about everything else.
