Replacing employees is not the problem. In fact, it's a good thing. It frees people up to do more enjoyable things with their lives.
The problem is that our economic system is unequipped to handle a world in which people aren't expected to work jobs "just because."

I disagree. Technology should be focused with all things that reduce the need for human labor.
What we need is what gp says: a decent social safety net. It cannot happen as long as we vote for people who want to reduce taxes.
Perhaps lack of health care will kill them all. But was their health care that good to begin with? Perhaps an actual solution for root problems is the better route.
