The problem is that we give them the option to not produce anything. If we didn't put up all of these insane barriers to enter into new markets and didn't create these massive incentives to stay put and avoid working and innovating, automation wouldn't be eliminating jobs, it would just be changing them. The free market would result in innovations creating entire new industries worth of work for people OR those unskilled would get with the program and learn skills.

The only reason the above doesn't happen is due to insane government interference.

That's certainly a rosy perspective on free market-driven innovation. These new industries would likely be entertainment related, no?
