Whats with the obsession with jobs. Like healthcare you can easily figure out ways that more than basic necessity are taken care of. Is it really important that we give drivers arbitrary work?

I wasn't trying to say that jobs were necessarily important. Just pointing out that most could be affected, not just "easy" ones.

I think it is possible that we will need a new paradigm for society, since jobs are a core aspect of the current one.
