For every self-checkout machine installed, three or more American jobs are lost. Limit the number of self-checkout machines allowed in retail stores to one per store.
Why is this important?
Each time a cashier is replaced with a self-checkout lane, a job is lost. Supermarkets, Big Box stores, and retail chains like Home Depot are replacing American workers with self-service checkout machines. The profits continue up the chain to the CEO and jobs that could be given to students or part-time workers are forever lost.
