            I was being sincere, we won't need to work one day a week as the robots will do it all.

            Lucky for us the global corporations will spread their wealth amongst all giving us unlimited leisure time and a fuzzy warm happy feeling.

                  That's utter rubbish, you'll have to get them in Argos.
