People are scared because it will make consolidation of power much easier, and make many of the comfyer jobs irrelevant. You can't strike for better wages when your employer is already trying to get rid of you.

The idealist solution is UBI but that will never work in a country where corporations have a stranglehold on the means of production.

Hunger shouldn't be a problem in a world where we produce more food with less labor than anytime in history, but it still is, because everything must have a monetary value, and not everyone can pay enough to be worth feeding.
