"who cleans the toilets? Who waits tables?"

The robots, of course.

I mean, the reason why this is an issue in the first place is due to rapidly increasing advancements in automating people out of the job pool.

Anyone who looks at the current state of self-driving cars and deep learning (ala AlphaGo) and doesn't recognize we are right on the cusp of a huge sea-change in how many jobs we can automate out of existence (at least in the sense that they won't be done by humans anymore) isn't thinking very hard.

And we are currently so far away from useful solutions to this economic problem that we really need to start seriously considering it right NOW.
