Yes.

But unlikely for most.
---

Across cultures and time periods, when people are forced to survive with very little, the same patterns show up. They reuse everything. Waste is avoided. Tools and materials are repurposed until they break, and then used again as parts. Skills are passed down by example, not theory. Most work is local, seasonal, and low-tech. People substitute constantly—if they don’t have something, they figure out an alternative. Being useful is valued more than being educated or wealthy. Complaining doesn’t get you far. Communities rely on mutual aid, but also respect privacy and quiet independence. There’s often some kind of folk wisdom, religion, or belief system that helps people accept hardship without losing their minds. Survival isn’t treated as an act of heroism, just what you do.

Some good books that document this plainly:

Possum Living by Dolly Freed

The Tightwad Gazette by Amy Dacyczyn

Five Acres and Independence by M.G. Kains

Back to Basics (Reader's Digest)

Just Enough by Azby Brown (on Edo-period Japan)

How to Cook a Wolf by M.F.K. Fisher (wartime thrift + food)

You must be a special kind of retard to think ordinary people will be the beneficiaries of robotic labor.
