How long has Walmart, Target, INSERT GROCERY STORE HERE etc had self cash out registers at their stores? 10+ years now? And theres still only 4-8 of them and they are constantly not working or because the general populations IQ is below 60 user error causes a lot of fuck ups/waiting. People who "run" registers now will probably become loss prevention or "spot fix" register technicians that wouldn't require anymore work/brains than now.
One, this was always going to happen no matter what. You're a fucking idiot if you really think the only thing stopping companies from automating as much as possible was the minimum wage. It's called progress. Second, you're even more fucking retarded because you think the worlds going to magically become automated and fuck poor people overnight because they dared to ask for living wages. You come off as bitter and incredibly ignorant.

My state's minimum wage is the same as the federal minimum. $7.25
In reality, nobody actually pays employees minimum wage. My brother is a banker, and said there's only one employer in the county that currently pays new hires at 7.25. I know her, she's nice.
Employers around here generally start people no lower than 9 (we're talking first job, part-time, in highschool) and that's rising quickly.
The economy is booming, and employers can't find enough bodies to fill positions. I could get a job tomorrow at my pick of places, at a lot better pay than I've ever gotten before.
If I applied to be a cashier at walmart, I'd probably get at least $12 considering my experience. If I looked for factory work, I would looking at about $16-21/hr to start with a $500-1500 sign on bonus.
Keep in mind, where I live is literally one of the cheapest places to live in the country (besides perhaps the DEP SUTH), so wages are naturally lower here. I'm sure you can raise these numbers in more populated areas.
You cannot TELL me that minimum wage is keepin' a nigga down. Some companies will pay for your friggn' college if you commit to work there.

Amazon's been working to demolish Walmart (specifically in price - cutting costs in everywhere possible) for the last few years; minimum wage has little to do with it
