I would say some jobs are not as enjoyable lets gets robots on those jobs and be sure we have replacement jobs or income and benefits for those displaced to have a cleaner greener economy move more quickly and less stress for those in changing industries

Beware of economic theories that artificially increase the need for labor because they don't know how to deal with reducing scarcity. You sound like the people who wanted to put expiration dates on all goods in the great depression to keep factories open. Just pay people.

Beware the forces requiring humans to work for no reason. If a robot can flip the burger or drive the truck, why force a human to sit there doing nothing?

It is madness. We as a species are pushing for our own extinction because we can't live with nature or ourselves.
