Governments are no longer allowed to print money. Do you think they will be allowed to build unlimited supply of robots? You are funny.

All the robot factories will belong to rich and we will have to _beg_ to have some measly allocation _while_ we feed the police that prevents us from just taking them.

And politicians will mostly just say this is _inevitable_ for some reason or other.

But then why hasn't governments and the rich already collaborated converted all of us plebs into slaves?

If that has not happened already then why do you think so pessimistically?
