The ‘Robotics’ problem is something George Ure at Urbansurvival.com has often explored. Tax laws favor the machine owner for production, and put the worker out of work…. and loss of tax revenue, too.

Of course it would never happen that way once the poly-ticks get their hands on the revenue stream.
