They won't because robots aren't sentient (yet). You can work them until they burst into blames from mechanical stress and lack of maintenance.

Also one thing people don't getbis robots don't need to reach human leven intelligence and consciousness to replace your job. Most of the human workforce will be replace by robots before the estimated 2050 tech singularity.

We already have: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVlhMGQgDkY

I don't understand why people aren't more scared of losing their jobs, that fucker up there can already move boxes around with 10lbs weights and maneuver in the snow almost as good as a human can.

Because by the time that thing does into full scale production and is cost effective enough I would already be so old I won't be a competitive box mover.

Seriously what is going to happen in america when all nigger jobs are automated and bands of jobless niggers(including white trash niggers) roam the streets "wild-ing out" and raping and murdering and stealing and eating human flesh? The smug engineer bros and finance bros always act like "don't worry anon, jobs will be lost in the nigger sector but jobs will be created in the engineering and business sector" do they really think nigger joe and white trash tina can magically become software engineers with a double digit IQ?

since robots would make a large profit some more money would just go to the social welfare program so your average nigs won't riot.

this.
In the end, there will be a bigger workload needed in the social sector.
It's all fine.
Since robots also make the production higher, the average number of hours people will work will also lower.

We'll just become a society filled with lazy faggots with a very rich elite, but it won't be the end of the world...

I bet you think welfare helps people too, Chang Li

>Implying the american rich elites will spend money on welfare when they can just hide their assets offshore
>implying they won't just spend money on private security and private police and private soldiers and increased security systems to deal with the nigger zombies while the rest of us have to fight for our lives mad max style outside of their highly militarized gated communities.

This whole robot thing is just pretense, what this is really about is a foreign government subsidizing companies to dishonestly skew trade in their favor.
