I don't think we are too that point yet , perhaps in some dystopian future yes, there will be a time when service industry just cannot exist, but if we collapse that far most people will be dying from whatever trauma befell our world in the first place rather then from starvation because they couldn't sell anyone an ice cream.
have you ever taken macro or micro echonomics in college?
I have. there will always be epople who produce more then they consume, and they will generally trade their excess for some sort of favor or improvement to thier industry or thier living conditions. there will always be a market for secondary goods
you know I could say something awful like, we tried having only 50% of the population employed once but the feminist movement put a stop to that.
