[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just another example of massively overpaying for unskilled and uneducated labor.  The results will be predictable, which are to accelerate the use of automation as much as possible. It’s only a matter of time before they overcompensate themselves out of existence.  Why would anyone with an education and skills accept a lower salary than a UPS truck driver?   Is everyone will be asking for higher wages, which in the end causes a whole bunch of wage driven inflation.  The end result is that UPS drivers get nowhere in terms of real purchasing power as where they were before, and all the country did after terrible wage inflation is just ruin everyone’s life savings in the process.

Companies will also start pulling out of the US as labor becomes massively overcompensated for these simple jobs.[/quote]

I worked for UPS my first year out of college. It was a great union job with health benefits even for part time work, but it would have been a hard job to work full time. It's hard on the body![/quote]

Farming is hard on the body. Working at a steel mill is hard on the body. Working at the slaughter house is hard on the body.  Masonry is hard on the body.  You gonna pay peo0,e who clean chicken farm houses $170k too because it is hard work?  Ready to pay $80 for a pack of chicken?[/quote]

Just a few pages ago you asked if people were ready to pay $50 for a pack of chicken. Talk about inflation.[/quote]
