    Well this happens with any big technology innovation, jobs become redundant and are therefore removed. We have to remember however that economy as a whole, and with that jobs. Are a human construction, we create jobs for ourselfs so we can be part of a collective that at least theoretically works together.

    So we will just create new jobs or things for us to do. Even when we reach singularity.

          The people in the great depression. Hell, just go back to the 2008 crisis when tons of people lost their homes to banks who now own a huge chunk of our housing.

            Which technology caused the great depression? Same with 2008-crisis? Weren’t both of them caused by inflated house prices?
