Assessments of the risk vary widely, with one study finding that 47% of the workforce is automatable in the United States, and another study finding that this figure is 9% across 21 OECD countries. The idea of taxing companies for deploying robots is controversial with opponents arguing that such measures will stifle innovation and impede the economic growth that technology has consistently brought in the past. Proponents have pointed to the phenomenon of \"income polarization\" which threatens the jobs of low-income workers who lack the means to enter the knowledge-based fields in high demand."@en . . . . . . . . . . . .
