Well I agree with the idea but achieving it would require a mind shift in society. Unemployment through automation is going to be a big problem. One solution is to spread the available work around. This will mean very few if any would work what we call today full time. Part time will be the norm. Sharing a job contract with maybe two other people so as supplement the basic national wage ensuring everyone has a comfortable life.
The basic wage would be sufficient to live a basic good life but any supplement would add to it.
The idea of becoming super rich would have no place in such a society which would require as I said a massive mind shift.
