That's not necessarily a bad thing. By definition, if there are no more jobs for humans to do, every human need will have been met.

No, that's not right. Assuming that you still need food, water and shelter, how exactly would you convince anyone who owns the means of production to produce for you if you have nothing to offer them in return?

Well, either way you look at it, in a society where every need is met by robots, there won't be anyone who "has not"... at least, not for long.

I totally agree with you . There will be one product which will matter and that is energy . That will be the greatest battle . We have the technology to provide enough energy for free but this is clearly not wanted , because of economics.

Economics created the current situations. Forgetting economy will solve it.
