To my mind, it is a good thing if technology allows us to become more efficient so we can get more done through less work. Ultimately it would be nice if this resulted in extended holidays or reduced working hours for everyone, without loss of pay. In the meantime, the government should help those who lose their jobs to re-train and to find work. It's not realistic to say everyone should do everything without any state assistance. It's not in the public interest for increasing numbers of people to be poor or unemployed, either costing money through welfare or in the worst cases drawn into drugs or crime.
