What to do with billions of useless humans ?

I have been thinking about this a bit along with the basic minimum wage.
It would also seem that we would need a universal "kickstarter" type clearinghouse to vote on projects that should get done. You would have to login and vote on a project say, once a week to get your basic funding, and you could volunteer of build things or do research to earn credits for travel.
Huh?
Well, there will be plenty of motivated people wanting to do medical research, space exploration, maths and physics projects, etc.
But how will we prioritize other new and ongoing research and development projects?
We will prob end up micro-voting projects that are within our sphere of interests, hence a kickstarter type of R-D, instead of a venture capital based, or top down Govt mandated system. Neither of the above have proved very effective or even that profitable, might as well try a different model...
What do you mean, "will be"? There are now.
In the usual way? The way we do it now?
What is the problem that you're trying to solve?
These guys seem to think that there will only be a 10% displacement of workers
