Minte I sincerely hope you are right but I've seen the realities in Africa and living in a city, driving a car and having an apartment does not makes you rich and nor does the place really great...

Just imagine that there are 1000 producers and around 100 buyers. You are a manufacturer but so are the rest of 999 battling for the 100 buyers and in these scenarios there is usually place only for number 1.

Robots tend to overdrive production and that goes far beyond demand. Robots eliminate the need for humans and we all now that humans are a resource that if depleted (of financial sources) gets the demand low and there for there is no need for manufacture and production.
