-——And that the technology business owners use to replace humans needs to have a tax imposed to replace the lost payroll taxes.——

That’s an idea that has been floated around for a while...

I’m still on the fence as I think it though....

Though I think the cost savings of replacement technology should in part be used to support the lost human job for a timeframe...

Why should taxpayers be burdened with supporting an person who is not working while his former employer makes more profit long term...

There is the capital investment cost aspect of replacing Joe worker..

You are deeply deluded.

Absolutely not. What you are espousing clearly promotes closure of the business if there is no way to make a profit.
