Rise of robotics will be the end of humanity one way ( War ) or another way ( revolution ) All middle men will be cut out Completely in financial sector, food industry, transportation, communication, construction. We are talking about billions of people here, World Wide. Not only that, but since there will be no more middle men there will be only Super rich people and extremely poor people and nothing in between. Sure it might create few jobs, but to get those jobs would be almost impossible. Unless you are a highly educated individual who finished a prestigious school that only rich people would be able to afford while poor people would get absolutely nothing. Look, no matter how you look at it or from what side, for Rich people it is a dream come true, for middle class and low class people welcome to a living nightmare where competition and chances of success is almost impossible. You don't have to look 10, 20 or even 50 years from now, look around the world TODAY. Very wealthy people literally squeezing middle class out ( raising taxes, approving restrictions, closing trading doors for those who are not part of a so called wealthy club ) and while at the same time they are stomping low class people completely and we don't even have robots today
