But taxing capital would still be easier than taxing robot work, yes? Since taxing robots is effectively a tax on a difficult to define subset of capital
Not arguing with you there -- taxing robot work sounds almost nonsensical. If anything it would be a great jobs program for tax lawyers who will tie themselves in knots figuring out how to circumvent this ill-defined tax.
Taxing capital is very straightforward from a regulations standpoint. It's only hard in that the capital will tend to flee the tax.
