We’re had the ability to make coffee with a machine for decades yet you still pay $5 for a barista made Java, I think we’ll be okay.

The simple fact is that economy can’t be 100% services. Who is going to pay these baristas if nobody else earns anything?

Which barista? The one that uses the machine to do 90% of the work, or the one that isn't a barista and uses the machine to do 100% of the work?

How do you know I don't have said machine at home?

And what bug bit you to make you think this is a good comparison anyway?
