I think the idea that this will come from the politicians and government is misguided.
This will come from the capitalist system, businesses will be driving the obsolescence of humans, not governments.
Once the owners of the means of productions don't need humans in their workforce, what value to they bring?
It will be much harder to "revolt" against capitalism/businesses than a central government.
And the biggest danger here, is it means the end of the capitalist system as the best way to increase living standards. If capitalism doesn't work as a means of redistribution anymore, because humans have been devalued, what economic model can replace it and be as successful?
We're re-entering an era where economic systems are all going to favor a few classes, and impoverish the rest.
