Remember folks, most jobs are lost due to automation like this. These robots won't be paying taxes or simulating the economy.

Yeah bring back telephone operators too while we're at it! No one should ever lose a job! Jobs are a person's whole life and they should get to do it even if something else could do it better!

It’s tiring when automation is repeatedly blamed for the failures of capitalism. Yes, this might take away jobs. That should be a good thing. It’s only a problem because our economic system doesn’t value human life and only values human labor.
