This is a classified ad in my local paper this week. You'll notice they are not working for minimum wage as the public is always told. Also, the article doesn't mention an important fact that mechanization provides and that is sterilization, robots don't use the restroom and forget to wash their hands or pass on bacteria and viruses. So many people in other business fields have been replaced by machines, like bank tellers with ATM's, now it's the farmworkers turn. Landscaping should be next.
