@sonist, well the connection is because people are worried that creative works wouldn't be compensated in any way, thus making writers unemployed. But if they'd be paid not in relation to sales, but in relation to being members of a municipality/community, there would be more people who would be able to spend time on writing and other creative tasks. So basically automation is good if it's put into use by social progress and bad if people are demanded to make money by working, but not being given the opportunity to actually do it.
