@AmericanChampion @Goalkeeper Automation is going to come one way or the other. Need to get rid of immigrants, stop incentivizing companies to offshore, and stop raising costs for small businesses. That's why big corporations don't care if the minimum wage goes up: it kills their small competitors. That's why Amazon and Walmart supported the lockdowns. Automation wouldn't be as big a problem if we weren't simultaneously killing small businesses, who won't adopt it the way the big guys will.

Starter jobs pretty much was the correct argument. But with more small businesses, that waiter has a better chance of being able to own the place later in his career.
