Bernie Sanders is running for president, and he’s envisioning a world where automation coexists with workers who earn living wages:

I'm running for president because we need to understand that artificial intelligence and robotics must benefit the needs of workers, not just corporate America and those who own that technology. — Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) February 24, 2019

And what if a President Bernie were to determine automation wasn’t benefitting “the needs of the workers”? Regulate the robots?
