The rise of the..

It seems inevitable that, with increasing automation in production, services and transport, the route to making money is to own the robots. This future seems destined to increase the perception of unfairness of the economy, since only a small number of people or organisations will eventually own "the means of production".

I consider myself a little ahead of the game in this respect; I at least understand the problem. I understand some of the underlying technologies. Sadly though I have acted too slowly. The opportunity to own the first robot within my means has already gone. I failed to mine Bitcoins.
