    I don’t think Walmart will be replacing their staff with robots.

    One products and store messes are simply so very un-uniform it’s actually hard to automate.

    Two the government won’t subsidize the robots like they do the workers.

      For #2 I bet you anything the executives will make deals with politicians. It will be sold as kind of a “too big to fail” thing. Because they provide a service to the community.
