Prices are going to be adjusted (increased). And they will not be readjusted when it’s over. In essence, this will not help anyone.

Automation protects famlies and keeps working so there is no shortages for the American family and no price increase .

Demanding more money isn’t going to fix anything, they’ll just replace everybody with people who think they pay enough 🤷🏻♀️

.... yall know if they get paid more, we all feel it. that had a ripple affect. somewhere it's going have to cost more in order to support that labor. which means all goods you buy will be more expensive
