We are physical beings with physical needs. We can't live on thin air, we need a basic input of energy and matter to survive. But our society is organized around private property. When you are born, you own nothing. So far, we've been exchanging labor in exchange or property. Once labor becomes valueless, the vast majority of people end up with no means to acquire property, which is essential for physically sustaining life. Something will have to give up, and I'm not placing my bet for the owner class suddenly having a change of heart and sharing their property with the rest of us. Which leaves the majority of people in a scarcer and scarcer world.
