Total scare tactic BS. The current robots are not capable of replacing McDonald workers. McDonalds is already very computerized as far as the cooking equipment and the entire store

Hate to tell you, but they actually are. Lots of McDonald’s stuff is prepackaged and frozen elsewhere.

Machines are completely capable of replacing workers.

It's a question of what makes economic sense, and a higher minimum wage moves the break even point toward machines.

There is, of course, a difference between replacing workers and eliminating workers.
