The scenario we are discussing is one where "the number of jobs automated approaches 100%", so the point would be that it is explicitly a situation where most people are not needed in the job market.

> If you redistribute money evenly, how would you get anyone to do anything

Currently, people need money to pay for necessities like food and shelter. Therefore either money is redistributed somehow or people have jobs to earn money, or we change the paradigm entirely to something else

We cannot have both no wealth redistribution AND replace all labour with automation without really messing this system up

This seems pretty obvious to me?
