While in the current economic crisis, we think, as we would the day hold the night, the most daring economic minds of Russia look into the future. Predict what and how.

around it turns out that without the robots, which accurately and precisely able to work all day and night, we can not do.

But where in that case to put the person with his addiction and human weaknesses?

In Soviet times, students wrote free essays on how they represent the Communist far: no manual labor, everything makes robots. A person is owed according to the principle “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”

Well, what is not Lafayette?.

it Seems that communism is not far off. Only rather, it will give us headaches about the urgent needs have to forget.

the fact that the Institute of progressive education offers domestic Finance in the country to introduce a new tax on robots. And collected from the employer money, which will equip its production good, new and progressive, to send to a specially created Fund for the retraining of vulnerable professions, where will our “iron helpers”.

According to experts, in the next 15-20 years automation and artificial intelligence considerably will press His Majesty’s person in the labour market. Unemployment in the country could reach 20 million people.

That is, to lie on the stove and wait for the dumplings themselves will fly in your mouth (think of Gogol’s Patsyuk), is not necessary.

Recall that today unemployment is around 3 million, and we’re not very comfortable. It seems that half the country thrown into the street.

And what if for the lathe or the Desk officer will stand (sit) robot? He paid no need to pay. Lunch break, 8-hour sleep or a Union collective agreement with the employer – is not about him.

But what will the 20 million unemployed Russians? Now, with the tax of the robots from the Fund retraining, they will be retrained.

the idea of a new tax is already supported in the state Duma Committee on the budget, the Public chamber and “Business Russia”. In General, from the introduction of robotic technology simple man will not win anything. As you can see, communism and robot have nothing in common.

oddly enough, something will lose and the state itself. After all, individuals it will charge income tax, insurance and pension contributions. And robot bribes smooth.

to Compensate for the shortage of funds in the Federal Treasury should Fund. To transfer a certain part on retraining displaced labor, improving her qualifications and competence.

According to information from open sources, “tax the robots” can be 13% Personal income tax with an average salary of a certain profession in a particular industry.

of Course, skeptics will scoff: who have seen any robots? And where they will take even 20 years from now?! In the global production of such equipment, Russia’s share is only 0.18 percent. If in the EU on 10 thousand workers have 86 robots in the US – 91, in Russia only three.

But technological progress takes its toll. In the early 90-ies of the last century, when only began to appear in mobile phones, we also thought that they were elected. But for us the turn if it comes, not in this life. Meanwhile, today they each.

should we Wait for the boom in the robotization of the whole country?

This question we asked the doctor of economic Sciences, Professor Igor Nikolaev:

– Our economy has a low level of competition. The introduction of new technologies certainly allows you to increase productivity, reduce costs.

But if administrative tools mean to an employer much more than the quality of the product and its cost, then why would he change something?

We first need to create an economy with a high level of competition. This is the fundamental problem. It deals with FAS – Federal Antimonopoly service, but little work.

the Friendship with the authorities to domestic producers is more important, it gives a guarantee that the products will appear on the market and will buy it.

in short, the robots in the current environment is desirable, in the short term nothing will change. Was that stimulus was the demand for robots, no matter what: domestic, Japanese or American. They would be implemented. Our economy is curve and oblique though, but the market, where demand is a key factor. And it depends on the level of competition, which is not.
