Most of fhose getting laid off will continue to vote for Democrats because, well, "Democrats care for people like me". How's that working out for you?

McDonald’s Announces Its Answer to $15 an Hour Minimum Wage – Touch-Screen Cashiers

. . . "This is exactly what the left pushed for… Fast food chains were never meant to be a place for someone to raise a family of 6, they were to be part time positions with some full-time advancements. Mostly the fast food restaurants were for school aged kids to learn how to interact with people, with a job, to offer spending money, and to begin responsibility learning for their future."The part time position was not intended to pay for a house, it is a stepping stone to move on.
"$15.00/hr x 8 hrs= $120/day x 5 days= $600/week x 52 weeks = $31,200/year!!"Of course when this happens, like it did today in Los Angeles, the poor and unskilled workers will go on Welfare, and cost American workers more to support them."McDonald’s recently came out with their answer to those that want $15/hr pay.Robots."This month in Europe McDonald’s hired 7,000 touch-screen cashiers."

Burger robot takes flight in $15 minimum wage state  "One of California's most beloved fast-food joints has enlisted the services of a burger-flipping robot as the state moves toward a $15 minimum wage.
"CaliBurger customers will now enjoy the hamburgers prepared by robots named
"Flippy" at its Pasadena location, and it plans to roll out the machine across the franchise. The Miso Robotics creation is capable of churning out 150 burgers an hour using "3D, thermal, and regular vision" to monitor the cooking of CaliBurger's "signature always fresh, never frozen, mouth-watering Cali-style burger." The burger chain calls the robot "the future of food." " . . .

Democrats like to blame anything but their high taxes and regulations for slow economic growth. Today, the culprit is robots.

"These inaccurate, made up predictions remind me of all the made up, inaccurate predictions on global warming or climate change.  When there is an agenda, facts take a back seat. "

Thanks a lot, Bernie

Rick Moran: Innovation in fast food industry making 'Fight for Fifteen' irrelevant  . . . "It's what happens when you completely divorce the cost of labor from the value an employee contributes to a company's operation.  Burger flippers and drive-through window attendants are just not worth $15 an hour to a company's bottom line.  That simple, basic Economics 101 concept is lost on the naïve fast food workers who are oblivious to the fact that a machine can outperform them and has the advantage of never talking back to the boss, is never sick or late, and will work just as hard at the beginning of a shift as at the end.

"It's ironic that in pressing for unrealistic wages, fast food workers have spurred companies to innovate.  In effect, they've worked to end their own jobs."
