I'm all about it. I've got my Corvette and just had the clutch replaced so I'm all about *downsizing for others now!

I'll downsize as well once I get my Bugatti and a private race track. Or two.

Good idea! Let's just replace workers with robots straight away and they can live work free!

That also means massive unemployment

There are a lot of BS jobs that don't create any value (real estate agents, advertising, ...) and a lot of work that is not getting done because nobody would pay for it, for example cleaning up the environment, worker shortage in hospitals and elder care.

That's actually a good thing, assuming that employment wasn't tied to surviving nor thriving.
