My curiosity asks, who wants to do the jobs robots do? The production of a product at today’s pace is mind numbing and the levels some of these production lines are running, with robotics involved in the assembly, puts at risk the health of human element. Some of these plants run 12 hour shifts, causing a huge physical toll with human beings competing with advanced automation at the edge of their physical capability.

Short answer: The people who would otherwise starve.

What do the people with an IQ below 100 do that is productive? Factory work is perfect for this type. Otherwise pay ‘em to breed and take drugs.

The jobs robots will do, will be all kinds of jobs. Some "experts"(Gartner Technology Research, among others) estimate that 30% of all jobs will be taken over by robots by 2025, even more by 2050. The number of jobs created in the robotics industry won't be enough to offset the number of jobs eliminated, and many people just won't be capable of working in the robotics field anyway.

All this ties in very well with the left's agenda -- a "living wage" regardless of whether you work (and millions won't be able to work), reducing the "surplus" population, and networking literally everything together to better facilitate the monitoring of "dissent."
