I imagine for every worker taken off the line there is one guy who builds the machines, one who maintains it, and usually one who oversees it.
They took our jerbbbbs!!!
Sure, yeah, Georgia Tech hates America. If that's what you take away from it, you should go join the other 99%ers that don't know what they are talking about.

Maybe they need robots to play football as well
It completely depends of the skill of the workforce. I was recently in India where people with shears cut the lawn, and an army of women with brooms rake up the clippings. It keeps the economy running by keeping unemployment at acceptable levels by giving lots of unskilled people a job. When you have a billion people living in a country they can't all be making something. It also insulates the culture from westernization. In that case inefficiency is actually better for the economy and citizenry.
I would far rather see a bunch of people who have highly skilled jobs building and maintaining these robots (people who pay taxes) than I would like to watch people send all their money south to Mexico.
The tax issue is a huge thing for me. I don't care for people who scam the system. As such, I have little good will for illegals (who pay NO taxes) or people who employ them (who also pay no taxes like they should.) And everyone knows that a huge number of these jobs are filled by illegals.
Either a person contributes something toward society or they take something from it. Not one person working here illegally contributes a thing.

Blame nafta and grain subsidies for driving Mexican farmers out of business. I'll bet you'd cross a border illegally to keep your family fed as well. I know I would if that's what it took.
This thread's about to spiral into a giant **** storm................. outta here.
I didnt say they hate america.......
GT grad or fan? I stated a fact.....if they want to build this robot they are willingly putting people out of employment i.e. killing jobs. Can you enlighten me since I know nothing of what I talk about? I am a good listener.
Those darn "hard drives" put all the punch card operators out of work!!I didnt say they hate america.......
Times change, and so does technology. I, for one, am glad I don't have to milk cows to get milk.
As an aside.. If your opinion of GT in this regard is in any way influenced by a football rivalry.. You'll have a hard time getting me to take you very seriously!
