The coronavirus pandemic has revealed a simple fact: it’s low-wage workers that make our society run — not bankers, landlords, or CEOs.
Low-wage workers are on the front line in the battle against coronavirus. While many workers have started telecommuting — and many others have unfortunately been laid off — low-wage workers are busy cleaning our streets, making sure we have enough to eat, and, of course, nursing us back to health if we get COVID-19. Despite being linchpins of a functional society, these workers are often treated as expendable or dismissed as “unskilled.” But over the past few weeks, we’ve seen just how irreplaceable they are.

Where are the Robots now? You see any robots doing our jobs? I don’t see any robots cleaning the stores, making the food, picking the food, bagging the food, the driverless cars bringing the food!
ONLY PEOPLE are doing this – where is all this artificial intelligence now?
Are the CEOs tooling up their factory to make something we need like a ventilator? That takes 3 months and then they need to test the protype so we aren’t going to see much help from them.
