And when you really get into it. What about factory workers producing high margin products? Don't they deserve larger cut as without them there would be no money coming in... Surely that is much more valuable than what is now paid?

Surely the robots doing all that work are worth way more than they are now sold for? Why should you take money from the robots and progress and give that to workers who didn't add that value? More money to robots means more progress.

See how easy it is to argue for the other side, that argument is so compelling that communists tend to focus more on robots over workers and keeping wages low than capitalist countries do.
