This is company greed, the end idea is to have robots replace people's jobs, the problem is that I have not seen the robots yet, only software and what looks like to be infrastructure build for robots. Apparently, they are also testing the use of Lot Bots at another Sam's club too, read this in an article recently.

The relevant question behind this should be as fallow: If you do not have a job, how are you suppose to make money to buy goods and service to keep the economy moving?

If the answer is universal income... Then...

What is going to motivate people to want to do anything for the progression of themselves and for society if you are receiving universal income, work will then have no reward, and most people by nature will do as little work as necessary in life (or said in another way, take the direction with least resistance), this is human nature.

But, Sams really does not care about this, because looking at it from a black-and-white business standpoint, by cutting workers and investing in technology, profits will increase and the business wins, if universal income is put in place, they have the infrastructure and they still win. Just everyone else will lose. My thoughts...

The closest Costco takes an hour and fourteen minutes to drive and that's one way. So sorry, no. Can't join you for pizza.

Just read the Forbes story and it makes me sick! What this person is missing is People! They don’t mention the employees that are being human sacrifices for this concept! Nor do they say anything about the Greed that is now driving this company! Wake up world the future has no place for human contact! just sayin
