That's Marxism in a nutshell - capitalism requires a slave labor class to prop it up.

We're supposed to be entering an age of automation. But now that the yoke of labor may be lifted from our shoulders finally, all anybody can talk about is "Full Employment".

I like your usage of "supposed." I feel like I have been seeing "Automation will replace <insert entity> in <made-up unit of time>" for the past 15 years or more.

I can't even get Siri to work 95% of the time let alone have her and her virtual brethren overtake society. I do not doubt it's possible one day, but assuming I am average, I have about 40 or so years left on this planet, and I doubt I will see it in that time.

I'm not trying to discredit the wonder innovations and milestones we have achieved so far, but it's the new "flying cars" to me.
