Very true but the question, as always, is by what means we can enact this change? The economy may well continue to serve the owner class even if all workers are replaced with robots.

I think the options are pretty clear. A negotiation of gradual escalation: Democracy, protests, civil disobedience, strikes, sabotage and if all else fails then at some point, warfare.

Workers have been replaced with machines many times over the last 250 years, and these fears have always been widespread, but never materialized.

I concede that this time it could be different, but I'd be very surprised while I starved to death.
