We should have all meat packing plants manned by robots, as some plants are in Denmark now. Totally clean and dependable, it’s an infinite improvement over low-wage human workers. It would be worth paying more for meat and vegetables processed in sterile conditions.

Why would we pay more? The initial cost of the robots would be quickly amortized and then, the continuing costs would be less than salaries, taxes, health care, providing locker & break rooms, toilets, protective equipment,parking lots. No absenteeism. No unions.
Employers would save a fortune.
I’ve always wanted to be able to buy or rent a robot for household and yard chores.
