This is not all true. What happens is that robots do the detailed critical work and the humans have to do the mindless work. Look at many factories, there are hundereds of people sitting at stations mindlessly assembling stuff. Robots are not used to do every single thing. Partial assembly and packaging is still done by hand. The problem is that a person needs to behighly skilled or has to be able to sit all day long and perform a mindless task. The problem is that the people who end up doing the mindless tasks (and it has to be done by lots and lots of hands, there is just no way around it) demand as much money as the highly skilled employees.
What people need to understand is that there is simply not enough work for also the people, be it skilled or mindless. What people also need to realize is that if everybody are highly skilled then the mindless work doesn't get done. Somebody still has to seal the box and put it on the truck. The answer does not lie in training everybody to be skilled, the answer lies in training people to take responsibility for their own wellbeing.
They need to learn that work is an artform. It might sound strange when I use the word 'artform' but that is the way I see it, a person could just do a job or they could do the job with the style derived from inner pride. I love doing what i do, be it fitting a light or digging in the garden, we express our souls through the craft of our hands and minds. Teach people to understand this and we might get somewhere.
