Depends. In a way you're just asking for corporations to "give" free money away to essentially have jobs they don't really even need. So that is basically a form of welfare. 

99.9% of elevators don't have someone there to call out the floor any more and I don't think that's changing either. 

Isn't it better to ask corporations to do that than the government?

Besides, the assumption that it will even be necessary is still just an assumption.

Well I think you could ask corporations, the answer you'd get would be a simple "nope" though, lol. 

We do know already 78% of American *workers* live paycheque to paycheque already though.

I would guess this is probably worse for younger people like those on this board.
