There are endless jobs that should get done. No one would argue to do pointless jobs - maybe just jobs that are still useful but maybe not quite as useful to make it attractive to private industry?

Who will decide what gets done?

Are there endless jobs that cannot be automated that should get done? Automation is not just for private industry...
