Most people worried about automation seem to be upset that useless jobs that produce nothing are going to be eliminated. Some fat single mother of three mulattoes getting fired because she is no longer needed to sit at a call center and read a script or push buttons when people make orders at a fast food restaurant is no problem at all. If these people really are incapable of integrating any sort of productive skill, they frankly do not deserve to live.
If we're talking about actual wealth-producing jobs I cannot see why anyone could see it as a bad thing. If a bread factory is somehow able to produce vast quantities of bread with only one technician monitoring the equipment, bread is obviously going to drop in price immensely. And what about the poor bread workers? See above. If they cannot produce anything they do not deserve anything. This isn't a bad thing. Humanity needs to be subject to evolution again. If automation ramps up the way we are expecting the intelligence of humanity will steadily increase as the skilless low-intelligence savages are removed from the population pool.
