Nope - the unemployment rate is dropping. Currently it's half what it was in 2010, and is almost at the pre-recession levels.
Again, if you look at automation over the centuries, it doesn't destroy jobs, it leads to people switching jobs.

More and more people are unemployed every day, while more and more workers get replaced.
The social welfare system in Germany started in the late 1800s when industrialization and internal combustion engines started to replace people.
Nowadays a country can be considered to have a "good" job market when only 5 to 10 percent are unemployed, while other countries, even in the first world, are at up-to 25%.
This all also extremely depresses wages, because the workers are competing against each other on the job market.
