You can only ask if you have one; then you can tell me.Why are Apple products so expensive?Tim Cook said even automating in China, which would be far less expensive than automating in the US, would cause an inhibitive increase in Apple products.Then why doesn't FoxConn automate?Universal Income is coming whether you like it or not. It's either that or have millions of people out of work and homeless on the streets. I didn't think I'd see it in the next decade but the pandemic has revved up the need for it.
Automation of labor will all but guarantee it
Because Tim Cook has already told us that automation costs money and no one will be able to buy the product.
Uh...who needs to automate when you have thousands of workers overseas willing to work for a pittance? Because that's where most of Apple's components come from.
Here?....well...
