FROM MOMENTUM MACHINES:
Fast food doesn’t have to have a negative connotation anymore. With our technology, a restaurant can offer gourmet quality burgers at fast food prices.Our alpha machine frees up all of the hamburger line cooks in a restaurant.It does everything employees can do except better:
It slices toppings like tomatoes and pickles immediately before it places the slice onto your burger, giving you the freshest burger possible.
Our next revision will offer custom meat grinds for every single customer. Want a patty with 1/3 pork and 2/3 bison ground to order? No problem.
Also, our next revision will use gourmet cooking techniques never before used in a fast food restaurant, giving the patty the perfect char but keeping in all the juices.
It’s more consistent, more sanitary, and can produce ~360 hamburgers per hour.
The labor savings allow a restaurant to spend approximately twice as much on high quality ingredients and the gourmet cooking techniques make the ingredients taste that much better.
Not here in the USA. We’ll be using “Dreamers” for these purposes for the next 100 years.
"I'm an inventor. I made this-- the Bathroom Buddy. The invention of the century, friends. It eliminates the need to carry heavy luggage and things when you travel. You got yourself your shaving mirror. You got yourself your toothbrush. You got yourself a toothpick, you got toenail clippers. You got... nail file. You got yourself a dental mirror. This is gonna revolutionize traveling."
The jobs don't belong to those that have them now.
They keep them on sufferance, as long as they do a good job for less than it can be done by someone, or something, else.

The word “steal” used in that headline tells us ominously where the politics of all this are heading.
A robot bellhop can’t tell you where to get a hooker.
Doesn’t matter. Robots will vote for the Dems.
Get dressed, grab your wallet and your card key, take a walk and work off that glass of wine, find a convenience store or a pharmacy and buy a toothbrush.
Walk back to hotel, doff the clothes and get back to drinking. Total loss of time? 30 minutes? Minimum human interaction. Easy peasy.
McWorkers strike nationwide and demand higher wages, then act surprised and offended that companies are looking to replace them with robots? Must have slept through “Logical Consequences” class.
No wages or benefits to pay. I’d use robots too, especially if I could take maintenance fees as a business expense on my taxes.
More robots- taking grunt jobs-
Exactly why the last thing we need are hordes of illegal aliens with a second grade education. They don’t even speak Spanish. Many/most speak Indian languages like Mam.
America is going to look like a cross between Blade Runner and the favelas (slums) of Rio De Janeiro.
Favelas are where the drugs are and drug deals are done-—

In the favelas, drugs rule. Drug lords and their soldiers are the main money makers and spenders. In Favela Rising, one teenager tells the filmmakers that drug ...
Twitter has 23 million users who are “bots”
They do the posting and Twitter and Facebook etc get the money from higher stock prices due to being popular - stock fraud.
Wall Street does the same with automatic trading back and forth with the only human taking in the profits from the pump n dump.

If one begins with the assumption that the buyers will buy just so much, then it follows that if now that given quantity of goods can be produced with less labor, because of the adoption of labor-saving machinery, then there will be correspondingly less work available for people to do, and thus that improvements in machinery cause unemployment.
But in a free capitalistic division of labor society characterized by economic progress,
(1)the aggregate demand curve shows that even any given quantity of money and volume of spending is potentially capable of buying an unlimited quantity of goods at lower prices, and no matter how great the output becomes at the point of full employment, it will be demanded.
(2)newer and better machinery leads to increased productivity of labor and changes in pattern or employment, not unemployment as a whole.And increased productivity of labor leads to increased total productive ability, which leads to economic progress, which leads to increased prosperity and higher standard of living for the average worker.
