UBI or some equivalent will become a necessity in the future. Autonimous vehicles doesn't just mean no more need for HGV drivers but every driver be it a taxi, bus or even train driver.
Automated production in factories will also drive down the need for people to be employed. That's millions with no form of income or any chance of getting one.
A dystopian future indeed but nothing to do with politics, thankfully it won't get to that extreme in my time.
Politics, Local Government etc, will possibly the only future employment, what happens to the rest of the population then? Allow them to starve to death?
