Jeff Bezos also has approximately 200,000 robots picking orders in his Amazon distribution centers around the world - they cost an average of $3 per hour. This greedy bastards goal is to have ONLY robots as pickers in the distribution centers, no humans picking orders. Not sure where all these thousands of people will go work, they certainly won't have any money to buy shit from Amazon.

FUCK Jeff Bezos. He squeezed so much out of this country, he doesn't care about it - he'll just go live in one of his palatial homes in some other country.

Zuckerberg no different. And why haven't Jaime Dimon and Warren Buffet (both Democrats) not come forward to endorse Harris? Because they value money over freedom and democracy.

I might be willing to entertain the discussion that automation does have advantages - but those advantages (cost savings) never trickle down to the other human employees that are still employed there nor do they trickle down to the consumer in lower prices. They are almost always taken by the corporation as profits, bonuses for executives, etc. If we are going to continue to automate, then it must be done in a respectful and responsible manner that brings value to the consumer and the people living in the communities- that is what I don't see from it.
