A mark, a yen, a buck, or a pound
First of all, it's not robots
stealing jobs. The expansion of automation to places & functions not automated before has to do with operational efficiencies, not with the robots'
desire to usurp all functions. In other words, the decision to automate is a cost/benefit decision, even if full automation means that most people could end up not working - because we're not efficient enough to hold down a job in a hyper-competitive commercial/production World.
& it's not even the bad ol' capitalist tycoons who are to blame - it's the economics of getting the most production for the least expenditure of funds, treating labor as a fungible cost. In economic terms that's a dead-end - if nobody has a job, how do they get money (or credit, or whatever M1 morphs into) to buy anything with? What keeps the factories producing @
any level of efficiency, if all the markets collapse for lack of funds? (Money
does make the World go around, in some economic sense.)
Japan looked @ including robots in unions, with about the results you'd expect. (See
https://www.csmonitor.com/1982/1214/121431.html) But very soon, we're (humanity) going to have to seriously look @ these issues. Without money or some equivalent means of exchange, the entire World economy will come screeching to a halt - or reduce to some kind of barter. I can't imagine what a post-money economy would look like. & I doubt that it would a world we'd want to live in, compared to our current levels of technological comfort.
In order to get around this roadblock - a by-product of the nature of economic competitiveness, remember - it's built into the system itself, if only now becoming technologically possible in the physical World - we need to consider alternatives. We may very well have to go with a basic guaranteed income to all citizens of a polity - however distasteful this may be to fundamental economic/political system traditionalists. In Western Civilization, @ least, economics dies out if there's no standardized exchange of monetary values to drive the gears of improving production.
