I've been reading quite a bit about automation, and i've listened to a podcast interview of Barack Obama talking about automation and how it's affecting jobs in the U.S.
I'm wondering how ya'll feel about automation in the workplace, and how it will displace jobs in the long-term.

Will it be necessary to have a sort of social safety net, force companies to hire people, or will automation have little or no effect on unemployment? Not everyone is an engineer, a scientist or a technician, how will this effect our economy in the long-term?
