Automation has been happening for thousands of years.. plumbing automated the process where people would haul out shit on carts, the wheel and wagons provided an automation for transporting goods... it is nothing new.

The thing is when each new automation increased the wealth for EVERYONE people also had new demands on their quality of living.

Imagine if everyone lived like the amish, a life style similar to what it was 1000 some years ago.. no electricity, no modern anything... It would cost you 100$ to live and you could literally work just an hour or two a day and sit by a river all day. You can have that leisure from automation right now... but you dont want that, instead you want all the wealth and do more work, so you get the electricity and the modern home, and decide to work and pay more for it too.
