What’s so wrong about just hiring UPS guys to deliver packages? Or
meter readers to read your meter. We want self-driving Uber cars and
robot vacuums and drones to deliver our packages and self-checkouts at
the store and bank.
In the case of feral hogs, it seems there are hunters willing to go
shoot them. But no, let’s poison them with rat poison so you’re
scared to eat the bacon.
I’m not sure why the fascination with drones for package delivery. Is
a drone going to leave the package inside my front porch if I’m not
home, or drop it on the sidewalk in the rain? Is the pizza delivery
drone going to ring the doorbell and then hover in front of the door?
Will it read the sign that says to go around to the back door? These
are all jobs that are not going to be offshored to Mexico or China,
unless that’s where they intend to hire the drone operators.
I am all for robots that do things like welding and painting cars. Or
cutting up meat in slaughterhouses. But once there are no UPS drivers
or meter readers or grocery checkers or bank tellers, where are our
kids going to find jobs? Oh, right, the coal mines and steel mills
and iPhone factories are coming back.

flag worn as a cape on the eagle. :)
