Why should robots pay income tax if our President doesn't?

Aliens are looking down at us from their observation satellite (aka the moon) and are laughing at us for trying to FIGHT the creation of devices that save labor.

Would you rather it take you 10 hours to pick 100 berries or 1 hour?

Would you rather it take you 5 hours to study enough to get an A on an exam or 1 hour?

We are fricked as a society because of AI though. Of course it makes sense but it is going to decimate jobs like never seen before.

How long will it take the prog Left Demos to want to give robots and AI Constitutional rights, including the right to vote?

Wasn't his empire based on clever tech theft/lifting off of Xerox?

We already do. It's called sales tax on the robot, sales tax on the maintenance parts, income taxes for the maintenance workers, etc.

These things don't exist in a vacuum.

We also don't have to have worker's comp, vacation, drug screens, etc.
