Give your Union a Shaka! How about a finger?

use self check out at the stores not caring how many people this is putting out of job

That self-check-out station was installed by union labor and inspected by government employees, plus it allows the merchant to avoid paying the higher minimum wage.

Any lost jobs are obviously the fault of workers who couldn't be bothered to keep their skills up to meet the new requirements, so they will obviously need "universal basic income" to continue to afford to live here.
