Pretty soon they’ll make more burgers than that by replacing workers with robots.

Would you buy a burger cooked by a robot?

That's what happens when the governments (fed, state and city) price you out of the market. Robots don't need benefits or wages.

You don’t know how correct a statement that is. In less than 10 years a machine will be doing those jobs of cooking and serving up food . Right now with the cost of technology coming down and with the threat of wages going up, some fast food restaurants will find it cost effective to purchase these machines.
Soon these jobs will be gone.
Also, I read a story about how efficient package shipping had become and if you pay attention to the decline of brick and mortar stores, you’ll understand that in the future the store you actually shop in will be gone.
Remember jobs leaving the US and going to China? Jobs will be going to robots.

Then for every twenty fast-food workers currently employed, there will be only one $20 per hour robotics technician needed, and a 2 or 3 person cleaning crew. Bye-bye to 16 or 17 jobs!
