    In such a future, would you be okay with large portions of the population choosing not to do any paid work? What would the labor market look like and would you want to institute any laws to change it?
    Is there anything left for humans to do? Could the majority of humans go out and do paid work?

    No, we will all be confined and forced to discuss politics all day on internet forums.
