And then you all die from an infected telephone booth because all the phone sanitizers have died out.

Joke aside, you still need people in what are now shitty low-paying jobs for a functioning society. So if you're not going to pay the janitor enough for a middle-class life, either make a robot to do his job, or die of dysentery. Do you think USA will be able to make enough robots fast enough to realise that? And will USA society be able to tolerate everyone being upper-middle-class?
