For the most part maybe tru but at the low end of yhe job market I disagree.

My current robo/vac/moo does a better job more frequently than any human I paid to sweep the floor. The robot is less than a months wages and no paperwork.

One of the large employment sectors in our area is landscaping landscaping and I could see 75% of that labor going away.

The amount of manual repetitive labor available for humans is probably already dropping.



A lot of landscaping is conspicuous consumption. Just like a 50k Rolex, people buy it because it makes them seem rich.


I guess that is a good argument that the people paying for landscaping always find things to pay for.
