They will find something. Hunger is a great motivator.

They will find something. You can take care of them.

Ok no offence but it sounds like you really haven't done much research on this. If even 1/3 of the population can't find a job through no fault of there own that is a major problem. Your solution is to do nothing or offer up useless platitudes UBI at least addresses this problem in a realistic way.

No, no free handouts. Their problems are not my concern financially. There are always jobs. Always will be jobs.

Those that promotes this handout can fund it. Not me.

I agree with you jobs will continue to exist for a long time however they may not be available to the majority of the population. It seems with increasing technology your right wing ideology breaks down because people simply aren't going to let the unemployed die.

It's $2.5 Million for a robot now that can't even perform most tasks. No one will pay $2.5 Million when you can hire a human for $40,000 a year.
Really 20-30 yrs? LOL

There are 'robotic sex dolls' being produced right now that are basically bipedal, humanoid robots, they are advertised and sold as sex toys, but they can do other things as well.

A big part of this depends on what kind of technology the public will have access to and what will be withheld.
