Most of them think things "will just work themselves out". In short: they don't have a plan. And if you pressed them, they would start talking in vague ways about how the luddites were bad and the industrial revolution was good.

A minority of the real sicko social darwinists think, that this issue will be solved through technologically supercharged state violence. And a lot of them are investing in that future.
