Income equality =/= Poverty ...
Who said anything about being happy with the status quo ? It would be great if everyone were rich in fantasy land of course ...
There is still many chances to be had to get wealthy in the US compared to the over half the countries which have lower income equality ...

You would not save much money. A rise in the minimum wage will likely mean a rise for all other employment that trends higher than minimum wage, that offsets the small extra costs in your burgers, it also ensures people can have a higher standard of living, something the USA is falling behind on... And took a fairly chunky hit during the GFC. |
It would save a lot more than you think. Robots practically work 24 hours with minimal downtime to boot. It would probably take less than 10 months to make the money back ...
Just like how some PC gamers keep proclaiming savings in the long run I'll do the same for automation ...
Better productivity = better performance
A heavily pro-PC gamer isn't all that different from an automation evangelist since they both believe in something that's ultimately superior ...
