I've read a lot of threads over the years about automation taking over lots of industries. Crazy to see how some of you, older generations I'm sure, hate automation. Just hate it with a passion. Call it liberal, call it lazy dems machines, call it what you want, I call it capitalism.
Sure, capitalism has ups and downs. One of the down sides is when you're a business owner, you try to make money. If I pay 3 employees $30,000 a year for basic entry level labor, that's $90,000 a year labor costs (closer to$105,000 after ins and withholding). So, I opt to buy a machine that costs $250,000 (plus more for upkeep) and after few years it pays for itself and now I'm money ahead every year, ie, profit!
Some of you look at it and say, great! American dream, making money, buying machines, contributing to the economy. Others (US message board members) say, commie socialist scumbag, fuck you, go suck Bidens dick!
I realize that in turn I don't have the 3 entry level grunts working anymore, but isn't that what they are, entry level? Arent I supposed to tell them to fuck off if they want something more than minimum wage? Why the double standard?
Only on US message board can you be applauded for being a capitalist, then get shit on by the same person for being a capitalist. Crazy.
