My theory is that when everything is automated, so will food production also be, assuming there is enough energy in the world for that. Then everyone will need very little money and Everpix can charge much lesser amount of money...thus still keeping number of users the same.

Unless all the automation is owned by a monopoly.

Ideally, but who says things will be automated in that order?

The crazy thing is that when people are suffering, there is work to be done. If the 30%+ unemployed in that scenario could reorganize themselves into servicing each others needs, they would surely want to do that.

Sleeping inside and keeping warm might be an issue though?
