How is modern society going to reconcile unemployment from growing robot mechanization? Primarily from those lower educated classes who depend overwhelmingly on labour intensive jobs. Certainly you will need people to repair and maintain the system but you won't be able to replace all the jobs lost.

Let's here it

It will just lead to increased income stratification. The same sort of thing has been going in many of the Latin American countries with no middle class.

People on the lower end of the scale turn to crime or drugs, moar burglary and propery crimes errywhere. Kidnappings and extortion of weathly people and their families will become a new industry.

Step 1 is to realise that this question has been asked since the Luddites were smashing up mill machinery.

Step 2 is to realise that the factors that prevented 5-hour working weeks, 90%+ unemployment and/or lives of bourgeois luxury for the layman are still present and relevant today.

Step 3 is a nice steaming mug of shut the fuck up.

All joking aside OP take the advice here in point #1. Full Automation is mostly a meme/fad made by tech companies to boost their stock value to gullible angel investors. Uber in particular is notorious for this as they have no means to actually implement the test car they've made whilst they're constantly in court over their dubious practices.

In the real world, various factors (such as red tape, free trade, liability insurance, etc) prevent Full Automation of many jobs. The ones automated now are mostly farms, most factories aren't as automated as you think unless you're a massive scaled-up operation where the lower cost of bulk goods justifies the investment in highly specialized equipment. Even a simple 3d printer often requires an employee to pick up the finished product and place it in a box. Same is true when larger and more bulk items are involved (say, transformers or bulk grain) where forklifts and cranes get involved.

why not?

I mean a few hundred years ago we were mostly all peasant farmers now only a small % of the population works in farming... new job roles are created all the time

Because its not a living place shift from farmland to cities. We're dealing with labor replacement. How many 'jobs' exist for horses anymore? There were a fuckton for them before machines replaced them.

Because most jobs require little to no creative ability and can thus be automated. The jobs that do require an analytical and creative mind are reserved for the few people that possess these traits.

Who the fuck, especially on this board, waits for society to assign them a role? If you can't find your own place in today's world, without the government or institutional employers holding your fat clammy hand, you're finally going to be the figurative horse being put down in favor of a model-t as automation hits its pace.

Get your shit together, and figure out what you can do to stay alive and procreate. Only niggers can get laid with no job and no future; prospective mates will expect more from you. You don't have a right to exist and have kids, and the system will extinguish you, if you don't take some personal responsibility for your future.

A good system should balance itself eg. population should lessen to an acceptable level that the system can sustain.

But we know that shit won't happen - retards will establish Basic Income because muh empathy, people will keep increasing in population from the artificial sustain, the taxes will keep growing to the point where producers will shut down their shit or move away bankrupting every nation with BI.
