What floors me is the number of people just quitting work. They seem to feel the need at age 40, to go looking for a new career. No matter how much Biden says otherwise, the economy is hosed, people are not going to work as long as they are getting "free" money, even if it means they lower their previous standard of living. We have a new generation of welfare recipients. I'm sure the child tax credit monthly checks aren't helping convince anyone to return to work.
I think the fast food will survive. Companies and franchise owners will be force to get automated faster - what I mean is customers doing their own ordering and paying, so the only real human jobs will do the cooking and packaging.
We'll see more self checkouts in retail.
And the middle class will foot the bill for those that don't want to work. It used to be an embarassment for most people to be on welfare, but that is no longer the case.
