It is up to employers to decide who to hire and how much to pay, subject to minimum wage laws. In retail, someone has to stock shelves and operate a cash register. With elder care, invalids need care for everything from meals to bathing to toilet needs.
Great idea and we can also eliminate all manufacturing jobs too, and replace them with robots so everyone can be out of work. How's that welfare line looking?
When the technology developes to the point that every consumer has the means to manufacture everything they need for themslves, is when money and employment will cease to be a thing.
I see the rise of 3D printers as the earliest stages of this technology. I predict that this is the ultimate end point to the capitalist system. When every person has at their disposal their own means of production, the capitalist will no longer have a role.
