ROBOT TAX – MY ASS!

Just watched a program which suggested that with more and more robots taking peoples jobs there will be less tax revenue to run countries so governments will have to consider creating a new robot tax. Apart from the fact that automation has always created more jobs than it destroyed – for example somebody has to invent, develop, make, program and maintain robots – it is surely clear that if companies uses robots instead of people they will make more profit so governments will get more tax through corporation tax. Are they trying to create panic or what! Lol
