I just hate them because stores have replaced half a dozen checklanes with an employed human being each (sometimes two if they had baggers) with one minimum wage paid person watching over 20 machines. It's so blatantly disgusting to me, personally.

Should we really be propping up jobs of dubious usefulness rather than going after a proper social safety net? We could pay people to dig random holes and others to fill them in if we just wanted to pointless jobs. Why not just hand out the money directly? Why the perverse requirement to make them jump through hoops for it? It feels... condescending to me to knowingly make someone do a task that could be automated just to give them a pay check.

So we should just maintain the status quo exactly as it is right now to make sure no one loses their job? Should we stop all automation to make sure that there's more jobs for people?
