That's not the point. The point is our industrialist and upper-management managers have tipped their hands. They have demonstrated beyond doubt that they'd totally replace their workforce if they could even when doing so means families or entire neighborhoods go hungry or are driven out of their homes.

And that includes creatives and experts. It even eventually includes, with a nod to The Brain Center at Whipple's , the upper management who aren't principle shareholders. The massive population correction at the end of capitalism is revealed at last.

Your own job is forfeit as soon as it becomes cheaper over a few years to automate your position.

As the Twilight Zone episode shows, this has been a known issue for a while. But we haven't yet seized the means of production even a century since the Great Depression.
