I can't view youtube vids from work, this thread is very insensitive

It would be nice if factory work was obsolete, but most factory workers, especially in the third world, will still probably be cheaper than robots for the time being.

Well, I was going to make a comment about the old Styx song "Mr. Roboto," but after seeing the "Breast Massage Robot" that it links to at the end... I really don't know what to say :lol:

That's why we should jack up minimum wage for both domestic and foreign employees to the point where it's cheaper to buy robots than offer jobs to humans.

You should probably acknowledge that you own and cofounded Joel's Discount Robot Emporium.

Considering I did it for awhile, I have somewhat of a vendetta against factory work. I wouldn't wish such miserable work on anyone.
