Nonsense.
Automation is replacing workers at an exponential rate.
The USA has lost 17 million manufacturing jobs since 2000 but our manufacturing output has increased.
The irony of the delusional unions deciding how much unskilled labor is worth, is that it eventually drove the switch to automation, and created the current Obama Food Stamp Society.
You can drive dummies to school but you can't make them learn. The only certain remedy is starvation.
But they learn all abour "respect" on the way to the cemetary.
