    It actually could. Imagine if salary had increased in accordance to the productivity boosts that automation has brought. Then you could have 3 people, working 2 days a week, sharing a job and being able to live from it. After all, it used to take more than 3 people to do the work a single person does nowadays.

      Why would a business pay for these things that make their workers more efficient and then relinquish all of the profit that came from making things more efficient?

        There’s a difference between “society couldn’t function” and “companies are too greedy”. One of them is wrong and the other needs to change.
