An alternative economic model to feed people in a country become necessary if robots start to replace jobs.

State run companies and business may use robots to create wealth.

Thereafter, redistribute wealth by paying monthly income to the population - even though population is not working.

Citizens become Master.
Robots become workers to serve Citizens.

Human enjoy "Paradise living".

Capitalist model to distribute income earn by a Country - can no longer sustain a Society in this scenario.

A new Economic model need to be used to feed Human living in a Country and a Society.

Robots become our "servants" or "workers" in accumulating wealth.

Human living in a Country will then enjoy the fruit of the wealth - whereby the State will allocate say $5,000 per person per month (according to the cost of living in a Society) - with housing provided - living in a "Virtual Paradise".

Thus a "State-provided" Economic model will need to be evolved - investing in robots to serve the Human Population.

The Whole World will be in a "Virtual Utopia", a "Virtual Paradise" - where every Human on Earth, in the World will enjoy the "fruits of labour" provided by the robots.
