    I’m pretty sure the odds of this are 100%. Except it’ll be military bots… and they’ll be purging the poor and middle class, because once you have robots to do all the other stuff the next step is to reduce the population.

    If you and your group control all the raw resources and manufacturing is fully automated, and you have robots smart enough to do all the manual tasks, you don’t need profit, you get to wipe out most of the population and create your paradise.

    Not enough people realize we are morlocks, and the Billionaires think they are the Eloi

      But everything is driven by profit. I don’t think the 1% will be able to pivot to reduced profit for better stability/comfort.
