It's an iffy trade, but I think a guy willing to come here from far abroad is going to be a hell of a lot more ambitious than what's here now.
ETA: And I'm assuming as people emigrate from here, others will immigrate here, and the numbers will stay somewhat the same. The idea is we'd just shed the dead weight.

So the problem is not really robots, but the anger and lack of ambition of many Americans? Immigrants can grow the economy in the age of robots, but Americans can't? That's an interesting thesis, and puts your robot fears in a new light.
