Just because we can automate something, doesn't mean we should. At least not until we live in a moneyless society.

You're really setting yourself up for disappointment here. You've created a dichotomy - either we should avoid automating things which can be automated (which isn't going to happen - consumers like low prices and shareholders like higher profits), or we should transition to a moneyless society (which is also not going to happen, money is useful and everyone likes it).

I think I'll be ok, but thanks for your concern
