The difference between $12 an hour and $15 probably doesn't factor into whether Wal-Mart automates. Machines are always much cheaper.

Go into any Walmart, the hours they're saving (and jobs they're cutting) are coming from the sales floor, not cashier's.

Robots aren't taking those jobs, those jobs are just being cut and responsibilities being shifted. The reason isn't robots, it's dividends

Get real! Their self checkouts require frequent monitoring by human employees. They malfunction. Customers need help.

At my local grocery store only 1 employee monitors the 6 self checkouts. Still a loss of 5 cashiers.

The concept of working for a living will have to be fundamentally revised within a generation or 2 (or 3). Machines will do most everything.
