The Horatio Alger school do economics. All BS, all the time, but orthodoxy nonetheless and the basis of conservative and libertarian economic thinking.
In the 1950's, Science Fiction was all about how robots were going to lift the yoke of labor from our shoulders and let us live our better lives.
Now that it's happening (automation taking over almost everything) we see panicky wrongheaded articles like this one, that cannot imagine a world where not everybody has to sweat for their daily bread.
