Robots are taking our jobs
Applied Topics: Price control, technology advancement and
unemployment
Research Questions:
?? 1. Robots and new technology are taking away jobs from human. In 2008-2010
Our government has bailed out U.S. automakers to save millions of jobs, not
just factory workers but also dealership related jobs and auto repair related
jobs. Should our governments intervene or stop robots and new technology
taking jobs away from us? Should governments offer other alternatives to those
who will lose job?
?? 2. Minimum wage is going up. Fast food chains are starting using machine
(kiosk) to take order instead of minimum wage workers? Should we stop
technology from progressing? What is the overall economic impact to the
economy?
