It is a theory that has some merit. Governments the world over will certainly already be concerned with the present trends, epsecially when coupled with these future projections.
The problem is that creating jobs out of nothing is not something that can simply be done.
The one thing capatilism has (thus far) proven to be terrible at is allowing the bourgouseis to pursue more artisitc pursuits. Those of us (with a microscopically small exception) pursue careers such as acting, painting, writing or any of the other fine arts by and large barely make the breadline.
I have little hope that capitalism will be any more encouraging of such pursuits when a society's constituants have less to do.
